A day at the Bass Pro Shop!

On Wednesday we met our friends Pam, Jon and their Grandson Nick at the Bass Pro Shop.  Nick and Pam had not been there before and Nick loves fishing and guns so we thought it would be right up his alley!  We had a great time looking at everything from ATV's, fishing boats, party boats, guns, clothes, shoes, things for the home and much much more!  The place is huge.  They have fish ponds, a shooting gallery, a climbing wall and more. I think Pam and I had just as much fun as the guys! We looked around, played on everything, shot the stuff in the shooting gallery and then we all had lunch in their restaurant, The Fish Company.  They had a huge salt water aquarium and if you watched Nick you would have guessed that he was watching tv.  I don't think he ever took his eyes off of the fish (maybe planning how to catch them)!  Lunch was good and it was a fun time! 


We've been having dinner with John in the evenings and tonight will be our last dinner together.  Tomorrow morning we still stop to get the air checked in the tires on the 5th wheel then we will head north on I-35 through Austin and stop for the night around Waco.   From San Antonio it takes two days no matter which way you go to get through Texas! 

This morning we saw one of the baby fawns on the side of the road.  It was laying in the grass but still alive, had probably been hit by a car.  We notified the park so someone would take care of it.  We didn't want it suffering.  There are sooo many deer and sooo many get hit by cars, they don't get too excited by it but it was sad.  The babies are so cute.


This little one still has it's spots! 

The town of Boerne is getting ready for the 4th of July.  There is a park near the Guadalupe River that is having a concert and yesterday they had these little flags along all the walk ways.  There is a walk way around the whole park and then four walk ways to the center like this one!  It looked really cool!


Leaving Boerne for hopefully cooler weather......"Ain't Life Grand!"
