Texas Stonehenge 3-19-07

Today was drizzly and overcast. We did our yoga and then went on a drive. We had some stuff to mail, so the first little town we came to Larry went in and then came back out still holding our mail. The window was closed until 12:30 and it was 12:05, so we just continued on down the road. We came across this pretty creek scene with the huge cypress trees and then the Texas Stonehenge. We stopped and walked around it, it isn’t an exact replica or anything, these people just decided to do this for some reason. The dog that lived across the road ran over with a stick for us to throw for him and when we headed back to the truck he headed home. We drove through some beautiful countryside, crossing and re-crossing the Guadalupe River. There are a lot of fancy ranches in this area and we saw a couple of the biggest bulls we have ever seen, they were lying down and had huge long-horns and looked enormous not even standing up. We hit another small town with a Post Office and again Larry came back out with our mail. It was 1:05 and this window was closed until 1:30…pretty funny. So we finished our drive, drove past our place to go into Ingram to find its Post Office and the third time was the charm, Larry walked out empty handed this time! Drama on the road…will the mail get mailed today or not?!!! So that was our big adventurous day!
