Still in Boerne!

On Thursday morning we were having breakfast when Ted noticed a little fawn with it's mother.  It still looked soaking wet and it's legs weren't working very well like it had just been born!  I tried to take a picture through the window so I wouldn't startle them, but it didn't turn out too well.  It was nursing mama and you can see how little it is from the picture!

For lunch we met a friend, Laura, who has lived in Boerne a long time but whom Ted had met in San Diego.  She has gone back to school at the University of San Antonio so that she may teach school.  She has two more years of college and then depending on the economy, will teach or go back for her Masters degree.  I give her a lot of credit for going back to school.   Her two daughters are both married now and doing very well.  It was fun catching up with her.

After lunch we went back to John's.  I cooked dinner and when he got home from work we spent some time with him before heading home!

Yesterday we dropped Max off at John's and took off to San Antonio.  Our shade was restrung and we wanted to visit the Guenther House.  The Guenther family started the Pioneer Flour mill which is still a working mill.  Next to the mill, the historic family home is a restaurant, store for the flour mill and small museum.  We enjoy visiting it and of course purchased a bag of sweet cream pancakes and sweet cream waffles!  The last time we were at the Guenther house,  they were in the process of extending the Riverwalk which runs right by the house.  It is now finished and looks very nice!

We got to John's in the afternoon and played cards (Phase 10) and I was the big winner!  We decided to go to dinner at Chris Madrid's down in a not so nice part of San Antonio!  They have the biggest, cheesiest hamburgers that are soooo good!  We were stuffed and went home and relaxed our tummies!

This morning John took us down to San Antonio to go to the Mercado, the market place.  We drove around for awhile and didn't find it so decided to abandon that idea and go have lunch.  We were all still full from the night before so we went to Souper! Salad.  We had a good lunch and went back to John's.  He had a lodge event to attend, so we ran some errands.  This afternoon we played another game of Phase 10!  Again...I was the big winner!  (That is very unusual)!  For dinner we had John's homemade apple cake!  That's it, dessert for dinner!  It was delicious!
