Rain, Rain, and More Rain

 

It has been nasty, rainy, and on the whole just very gray and bleak.  Very cold too.  Makes you want to just either get in bed. or in your recliner and just sleep these dull days away.  But, life goes on, at a very slow pace though.

 

I am so sick of Wal*Mart… We went in the other day to get our prescriptions filled, and were told it would be at least 2 hours, so I said I would be back the next day.  Keep in mind, every trip to Uvalde is 30 miles each way.  We did go back the next day, and you guessed it, they still weren’t filled, so we decided instead of making another long trip, we would just wait.  The clerk assured me it would be no more than 10 minutes.  One hour and a half later we finally got our pills, and I was shorted.  I went ahead and took what they had, but that will mean another trip back on Monday.  We probably will need a few groceries by then, but it is just the idea that they never do what they say they will do.  Why do I stay with them?  Because they are everywhere, and not all drug stores or groceries are.  I don’t have insurance for drugs, so I take advantage of the $4.00 generic program they have.  Nuff said…. :(

 

We did finally stop at a little road-side Taco place on the way home and got a couple of breakfast burritos.  They were filled with eggs, potatoes and refried beans.  They were really good.  It is just a little hole in the wall, but I will share a picture with you.

The highlight of the trip that day was when I saw a Road Runner, but I just can’t seem to get a picture of one.  I have tried many times, and failed each time.

I have to share this picture of my cousin with you.  I stole it off of face book.  Hope she doesn’t mind.  She is a very big Colt’s fan, so thought this was cute.  She has a whole room devoted to the Colt’s in her house.

Sam, of the 5th wheel vagabonds, put up some pictures from the past a week or so ago, and it reminded me of a picture of our dog, Cujo that I wanted to share with you.  The beautiful black Police Dog is my sister and Brother in Law,s dog, Izzy.  Cujo now lives in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, with our son Jay, and loves it there very much.

Want to welcome my newest follower, Lake Conroe Penny TX.  I find her site one of the most informative that I read.  I always look forward to her posts.  Thanks for following mine Penny.  In case I haven’t told you for a while, if you click on the different colored words or phrases, it will take you to a site.

Want to share a Christmas picture of my daughter, Shannon with you.  She is so beautiful, and the best kid in the world.  I love you Shanny, and thanks for the beautiful card.

On our walks with Rusty we often talk to different people in the Park.  A couple of days ago Don talked to an old guy that is very familiar with the area, and they were talking about places to go and eat.  So, when Don got home he was all worked up about this place over in Sabinal.  Now if you remember, we just found a place to eat breakfast last week, but he insisted that we try this place out, so that is what we did this morning.  It is a small place, right outside of Sabinal, Texas.  It is a BBQ place to be exact, but they serve breakfast, so in we went.  It was really good, and the little lady waiting on us was very fast.  It was really cheap too, so now we have two places to choose from.

I realize those aren’t the best pictures in the world, but it gives you an idea of what it looked like.  We were only there a couple of minutes, when all of  these tables filled up.  That always speaks highly of a place.

Tonight is game night at the club house, so we will be going over about 6:00.  I want to leave you with one more picture of a crossing on the Frio River, over by the Concan Golf Club.  Very unusual to say the least… :)
