Columbus, TX

We had breakfast with the gang yesterday morning and then most of us left for parts unknown!  We went west back to Columbia, Tx.  Our campground is right on the Colorado River.  There are about 6 sites that back right up to the river and we were lucky enough to get one.  The river is pretty dry but it's still fun to see the fog on the river in the morning and lots of little baby ducks.  It was 30 degrees this morning when I walked Max (but so far no mosquitos thank God)!  The campground is full of Pecan trees but there was no rain last summer so the trees have no pecans.  A lady told me that last year they had tons of pecans!

There are lots of deer in the campground, this one was keeping an eye on Max and I.


Today we drove in to town to have lunch at one of the barbecue restaurants.  My ribs were really tender and the sauce was good but not great!  We drove into the historic district and saw the Opera House.  They have concerts one a month, special events, weddings and more.


On one side of the square there are some shops (we didn't find any shops to visit):


Across from the Opera House is the old Water Tower which is now the Daughters of the Confederate Museum.

Enjoying the local scenery..."Ain't Life Grand"!
