June 2 2022 Lake Lewisville

 We had a pretty good storm last night and it was still drizzling when I got up. It was a cool 64 degrees. There wasn't much wind blowing so I put out the awning and sat outside drinking my coffee .  I was able to get a short walk in before breakfast.  Susan did some sewing and I piddled around outside mostly reading. The weather was so nice as it cleared up.  After my nap I went and filled up my truck as we are headed home tomorrow, that set me back some. Around 3 we headed to Richard/Cheryls to visit one last time. We had a good time. We got home around 8:30 pm. Going to try and get an early start tomorrow.

Watching deer feed from my recliner inside

 I got a really good nights sleep and didn't wake up till about 5:30. We didn't have any wind blowing this morning and it was a little more humid but still pleasant . I took a walk around the campground loops but again not many folks stirring. I saw quite a few animals moving around.  After Susan got up we sat out for awhile and I cooked breakfast.  She did a little sewing and later I took a nap outside in my chair. Around 2 we headed over to Richards. For supper we went to Pappadeaux's for supper. It was a nice evening.  When we got home there had been a pretty good storm there. For some reason we couldn't get our satellite to work, I couldn't figure it out so we streamed tv thru our hotspot on our phone. In the morning I will work on that issue.

May 31 Lake Lewisville

 I didn"t sleep well and got up about 5. It was pretty nice outside with the wind blowing and not much humidity.  I took a a walk early around the campground. Not much stirring except two little cottontails. Susan got up about 8 and we just sat out for the morning. I cooked breakfast around 9.  Later Susan took another nap and I took another stroll. We then cleaned up and headed to her brothers in Frisco. Susan and Cheryl went shopping and Richard and I stayed home. Richard cooked us a great supper that evening and we just visited. Of course Gracie, their dog, was just happy to have visitors for the evening.

May 21-30 Mackenna"s Graduation Week and Lake Lewisville

 This was a hectic week for old folks. We started on Saturday with Mackenna"s party with just her friends. There were a lot of kids there. Mike and Kristi with one of their friends cooked a ton of food. It was a truly hot humid day. Us old folks stayed inside in the ac. The kids had a lot of fun as heat not a factor to them. On Sunday I moved the trailer up by the house so we could start loading it for our trip to Lake Lewisville Monday was our anniversary and we went to the Monument Inn for supper. As usual the food was very good. Thursday we went to MD Anderson for Susans annual check up and all was good. On Friday we went to the airport and picked Adam up. He flew in from Colorado. Saturday we went to NRG for Mackennas graduation. Getting in and out of the stadium was terrible but the actual graduation went well. The graduating class was about  620 kids. Mackenna was in the top ten percent. After that we went back to Mike/Kristi house for burgers and visited. It was a late night for me. On Sunday we went back for another party for mostly family and friends. We had a fun time but left early as I was wore out and we were leaving the next morning.  I went to bed about 7:30 and slept hard. Monday morning I finished loading the last minute stuff and hooked up and got on the road about 9:00 am.  We stopped in Centerville for lunch at Woodys Smokehouse and then stopped one more time for gas. I took the loop around Dallas because last year it was rough going straight thru downtown. We got to the park about 3;15 and got set up. We have a nice shady site.  About 4:30 we headed to Frisco to visit Susans brother. They took and us to eat a hamburger at Jerry Jones world.  The Wahl brothers own the little place we ate at. We then walked around and looked at the Cowboys facilities there. Nothing but first class. Ole Jerry has a little money.  We headed back to the house and visited the rest of the evening.

April 20, 2022 Canyon Lake Day 4

 It started out another overcast day this morning without any rain. WE did have a steady wind blowing around 10-12 mph. Our little day trip today was to Blanco.  We ate breakfast there at one of my favorite little places called The Chess Club. Its a really old house converted into a cafe,  Nothing fancy but they serve good food. After that Susan went to a quilt shop there and I just wondered around the old courthouse. After that we just headed back home. I chilled outside and Susan sewed. After 3:00 new trailers started arriving. We have been empty on our end since Monday. I suspect the park will be full by Friday.

April 19, 2022 Canyon Lake Day 3

It was a tad chilly this morning about 57 degrees. Just right to sit by our fire pit  and enjoy.  The morning started out overcast and then a little sun broke thru. As the day progressed the wind picked up. We made sausage and bisquits for breakfast. After breakfast i did my daily walk, only 2 miles today as I have a sore spot on the bottom of my foot. it would help if I put my hiking shoes on instead of wearing my camp shoes. When I got back we loaded up and went to Wimberley. Susan went to a quilt shop and I went to Brookshire Brothers to pick up a few things. There were lots of people in town and it sure has grown thru the years. We drove the back way home looking at the countryside. We both ate a light lunch and took naps. When we woke up there was a light mist falling and it stayed that way till dark. Susan sewed and I read and we also watched a movie.  We just had leftovers for supper. Just at dusk when I finally saw 4 deer by our camp. This was the first deer we had seen in camp, usually we always see deer here.  

April 17,18 2022 Canyon Lake

Sunday morning we headed out for Canyon Lake. We didn"t leave untill about 9:45 because check in time is 3:00 pm at Potters Creek. They are strict about that.  We stopped at Sonic in Liberty an grabbed some drinks and breakfast tacos and off we went. When we got to Giddings I stopped and got gas and walked around some. Our plan was to eat lunch here but neither of us was hungry. Since we didn"t eat we got to the park at 2:35. We pulled to the side to wait for 3:00.  There were five trailers in line when they let us in. We got in our spot and set everything up. The weather was nice about 82 with no humidity.  We just sat outside most of the evening and just chilled.  It was about 60 when I got up Monday morning.  They have a burn ban here so no ground fires. I had our propane firepit and we could use that. It was pretty nice sitting there, Susan slept in till about 8.  We decide that we would just hang in camp today. I cooked us a little breakfast around 10.  After that I took a walk and Susan started sewing.  I planned on doing 3 miles but I wimped out at about 2.5. The uphill part beat me down, I"ll go a different direction tomorrow and go downhill first. I didn"t see any deer or rabbits on my walk.  Later we had to run to a Dollar General as I needed some coffee filters. On the way out we saw two does but then we saw two Axis Bucks.  We have been coming here for year  and I"ve never seen Axis here,  it was after check out time when we got back. All the weekend warriors were gone. We had our end of the park to ourselves.  It will probably stay quiet till about Thursday when more folks will headed in.  We had another really nice evening. I cooked hamburgers for supper.
