| Gauge Knit |
Took off up to Austin today, just a mere 45 minutes north of San Antonio. Visited GAUGE KNIT which is a very quaint little knit shop just full of life and favorite gathering place for ladies to knit. The owner introduced me to Ravelry, the website everyone is using these days to get free patterns and ideas for your next project...cool! She also gave me a tip on where to go for lunch.....

| Need a bigger boat... |
HULA HUT is a Polynesian/Mexican restaurant on Lake Austin and has the best shrimp tacos in Texas. Most of the seating is outside on their very large Pier and Patio where this very big plastic fish is sticking out of the water in all his glory. Speaking of tacos...only in SW Texas can you get a taco just about anywhere - fill up your tank...get a taco; get your truck washed...get a taco; buy a new pair of shoes...get a taco (I made up that last one but the first two are TRUE!). Call me a taco snob but "I ain't buying no taco from a gas station"!

Next stop - Barton Creek. A 4* Golf & Spa Resort in SW Austin and home to PGA Pro Ben Crenshaw. In 1985, the developers of Barton Creek Resort & Spa looked out across some 4,000 acres of raw land and envisioned a world-class residential development comprising multi-million-dollar estates, a private country club and a resort complete with European-style spa and fitness center. And it was all designed to harmonize with nature and preserve the splendor of the Texas Hill Country. There are 2 Fazio courses, a Crenshaw course and a Palmer course. Would love to play golf here some day....I can dream can't I.

Once back home, George's 92-year old Uncle Bus and Aunt Barbara, who lives a few miles away in Cibola, came over to visit for a spell.
