And here we have Christian and puppy
We have just started our second week at Highland Lakes, Texas.  The first week was adjusting to this new life style. I have gone from being "home alone" to living with the SOWERS family.  I'm learning lots of good stuff, for one I can be with people and even enjoy it....and I can get up at 6:45am and survive.  We have devotions each work morning and that is a lovely way to start the day.  I was worried about this aspect and find once again it was a great waste of worry. 
Saturday Dale and I drove into Austin and had a fun afternoon with our nephew Dean and Bonnie.  It was Tye's first birthday (our great niece).  A little cutie.  Dean is Dale's brother's son.  We were able to visit them last year when we were in Texas and were glad to be able to renew our friendship. 
Sunday afternoon was beautiful, sunny and warm.  Dale and I have been eating way too much of the great food served to us here at camp and wanted to walk some of it off.  The Camp is surrounded by Lake Travis (part of the Colorado River) and a County Park.  We picked a trail and walked and walked and walked and walked.  The trails were very poorly marked so we traveled in what seemed to be the right direction.  Of course, neither D nor I have a good sense of direction and we finally found the road several miles from our expected destination which added about 3 more miles to our walk.  About a mile from the camp a cold, windy front came through and eventually we were REALLY glad to get home.  Our SOWER neighbors had put our awning up so no damage was done.  We were SO glad to put our feet up.

My work has been putting craft projects together, very enjoyable for me.  Dale has been working on building a garage. 

And the sun is still shining....
