Boerne's Cibolo Creek Walk Beginnings

 You're looking at a tall crane
that cement is being pushed through to pour the walkway below.
 Harry's getting excited about watching all the new happenings on our little part of the Cibolo!
 They covered the walk with these lovely aqua tarps.  
I'm guessing they did this to keep the cement from drying too fast.  
It's been so so hot!
 Almost under the W.SA bridge.
These are the original stone steps - too cool!

Back Yard Brunch

Lolly, Kim, Bitsy & I gave Famous Sister Cheryl's daughter Rachel a Feet in the Creek Brunch.  However, as most of you know it was  yet another HOT HOT day in Texas!  Not enough water in the creek but had a fun time showing off our crazy hats!

Spring is Here!

I took pictures of our yard today for all to see. 
The Mostly Native Cibolo Nature Center Plant Sale was on April 2nd this year and we purchased many many plants.   I'll try to name some of them: Rosemary, Pigeon Berry, Cedar Sage, Tropical Sage, Texas Betony, Mexican Feather Grass, Turks Cap, Lindheimer Senna, and Wooly Butterfly Bush

 These gardens are filled with chives, ment, sages, parsley, cilantro, mexican herbs, marigolds, black eyed susans, artichoke and who knows what else!   We'll see when they come up.
 This is Annie checking out some bulbs planted by previous owners/renters way back when.  And you can also see the wonderful Veggie Garden Morton & I finished last week.  
 This is a pic of the flower Annie was sniffing.
 Harry and Annie watching me take a picture from across the street.

Florida!!!!!!!


 Carr's House
Can't you just tell you are in Florida when you see 
a cute yellow house with blue skies and lots of sun!


 Ava & Jack
Yes,  Ava is Jack's girlfriend! 


 Now check this out.  I saw Jack make at least 4 or 5 goals!  
Maybe Jack will be Florida's Manu Ginobili!


Matthew & Jack missed the family picture.
But you can still tell we are in Florida!

The Closest Moon in 18 years!

I took these pictures from our side yard.  
Wish the pictures showed how big the moon really looked on both nights.
