Visiting and Packing

We had a delightful weekend at my sister's place at Lake Buchanan: my younger nephew and his wife were there with 3 of their friends, my sister's friend from Las Vegas was there with a friend of hers from Austin, and I got to visit with my cousin and his daughter from Alaska as well as another cousin I haven't seen since Christmas.

Yesterday we met my sister, brother-in-law, and friend from Las Vegas in Gruene for lunch and shopping.

Then it was time to start packing for our 11-day trip to the Davis Mountain (we're leaving tomorrow). This is not as easy as it sounds as we need to pack tools (always a need for construction and repair out there), clothes for hot and cool weather plus clothes for painting and other dirty work, plants to spruce up the cabin, books to read, household items (mops, etc.), food, and a variety of other odd items.

We'll be gone until Monday night, August 11 and I'll be off the blogwaves until then.
