November 21, the drive to San Angelo and Eldorado Texas

We left early last Weds. as we had a 5 hour drive ahead of us...
 
 It started off a bit foggy...
 
 
 Michael took photos of downtown San Antonio while I boot scooted and boogied on Hwy 10 through downtown...
 
 Love coming out of San Antonio on 10 and the start of the Hill Country, so beautiful!
 
 
 Autumn was showing it's colors...
 
 
 I especially like it when the speed limit is 75-80 and you can go...Weee....
 
 
 The colors in the trees kept catching my eye...
 
 
 And of course all across the U.S. I see roads cut out of hills and mountains and it fascinates me. I know they used dynamite and you can see the drilling marks.
 
We went to San Angelo first and checked into our hotel and then headed to Dawn's house in Eldorado...
 
 Michael found the baby goat, he is fascinated by goats and loves the babies!
 
 
 One of Dawn's horses waiting for feed...
 
 
And later we broke out the twister game I got the kids and they had a blast!!
 
Tomorrow was Thanksgiving and Dawn was fix'in to have a houseful...

Happy Thanksgiving

 
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving in the U.S.A. and I just want to wish everyone a Happy-Thankful day!
 
(one of my favorite photos from our day on the road, Hwy 10 near Kerrville Texas)
 
Michael and I are on a mini-vacation...I'll try to post photos here and there!
We are spending Thanksgiving with my adopted sister, Dawn and her Family. Looking forward to a delicious turkey right out of the oven with some really yummy dressing!
 
Hope y'all have a great rest of your week.

Help!!

 
 
A friend found this in her yard and we aren't sure what it is...Can anyone help us identify it?
 
I know I've seen one before but for the life of me I can not remember what it is...If you can help us we would greatly appreciate it.
 
 
 
 
 


Eastern Meadowlark...

 
They are here in flocks for the winter, spotted this one out in the pasture after the others flew away. Guess he or she is a loner! Not hard to spot them with that bright yellow chest and black bib.

The boys...

Michael's friends came over last night and they have been having non-stop fun...
 
 
 Jenny and Jake so want to play too but the boys said "No Dogs Allowed"...Poor Pups!!
 
 So the dogs sat at the front window and watched and watched and watched...and whined and whined and whined...
 
 The 3 musketeers and their side-kick for the moment...Jenny was so hyped up and just wanted to be with the boys!
 
 
 They are off on another adventure, there were a lot of adventures this weekend!
 
 
 We went and saw a movie this afternoon then afterwards I took the boys and Jenny down to the creek to play and explore!
 
 
 Yes we still have wildflowers blooming...
 
 
 The boys caught some baby frogs and a few minnows too...
 
 
 Catching frogs...
 
 
 Stuck! Uh Oh!
 
 
 Jenny I think you need to go find a bigger stick, that one just isn't big enough, lol. She loves to gather sticks and or tree branches!
 
 
 I had the camera ready...I really thought he was going to fall in...
 
 
They had fun and they were all covered in mud!!
After some showers and bathes it was game night, they are playing board games at the moment. Love hearing their voices, they are having so much fun!!
