Most of the week was dull. I'm dull, actually. Anyway, on Thursday, Julie wanted to go see Bruno Mars. Over 75,000 other people thought that was a good idea, too. And since we didn't have tickets, this is as close as we got to the stage.
Afterwards, we ate Rodeo food- deep fried Reese's cups and deep fried Pop-Tarts.
Friday, we were back at the Rodeo. This time it was the Bunnies & Boots Bash- the appreciation dinner for donors & members of the Rabbit Committee, one of the 107 committees of volunteers who staff and run the Rodeo each year. Julie is a member, so I get dragged along. Typical party. Silent auction, lots of cowboy hats, lots of rhinestones, lots of crappy beer at the open bar.
Of course we took the opportunity to eat more Rodeo food. Fried shrimp & fries, fried dill pickles. I don't know who created fried dill pickles, but they are an absolute genius.
By the way, meals like these are why I've gained thirty pounds since moving to Texas…

Saturday worked out to be a day for relaxation.
The WT jeans at rest. Damn Cerberus is gonna feel my wrath…
I also swung by the store to see if I could find a particular beer. Came up empty on the one I'm hunting, but that doesn't mean I came home empty handed. Grabbed a few singles, plus a sixer from a local(ish) brewer.
Cheers, people!

OK, so it's about time for another post. This week is Spring Break for the kids and we decided to get out of Houston and go do something interesting. So we hitched the horses up to the wagon and hit the trail for New Braunfels, in the Texas Hill Country. Of course, that meant getting suitably fueled up. Did you know Red Bull comes in different flavors now? I didn't. Lime is only decent…
First day we had lunch at the Gristmill in Gruene. The Gristmill is in the historic section of the town of Gruene, right next door to the Gruene Hall. The Gruene Hall was built in 1878 and is the oldest continually running dance hall in Texas. The area overlooks the Comal River, though it's not much more than a creek at this point.
We also went to Natural Bridge Caverns, named for the natural stone bridge.
From that point, you go down, down, down into the caverns…
And see cave stuff, like stalactites and stalagmites and weird jellyfish like things.
Plus the occasional bored looking child
All in all, a pretty good day.

They're everywhere, aren't they? Waste of time to photograph one, really…

Oh God no.
I grew up in North Carolina; Charlotte, to be exact. I went to college in Arizona, then ended up in New Jersey for a few years. I met my Texas born and bred wife there and she "convinced" me to move here. I've been a resident alien for about eight years now.
It feels longer…
