Our weekend at Lake LBJ

We flashed back to the past a little this weekend, joining YCT for their annual retreat, held this year at Log Country Cove at Lake LBJ in Kingsland, Texas. A flashback because, for those who don't know the tale, this is where Randy proposed to me in July 2007 (so, almost two years ago to the day!).

Gone are the days when Randy and I held positions of note in this organization, so we were able to pay our fees and then just enjoy the weekend as we saw fit. Saturday we drove into Llano to get new pics of the courthouse and to get Cooper's for lunch (seriously, if you haven't been to Cooper's, you are really missing out). Then we decided to meander over to Tow for a tour of the Fall Creek Vineyards, and scored a couple of bottles of wine while there. We went back to Kingsland and the cabins for swimming, a good nap out on the porch, and for the traditional hamburgers and beer dinner.

We met friends in Granite Shoals today and from there went to Marble Falls for lunch on Lake Marble Falls (we didn't go somewhere too special - just Chili's, to make it easier to find food that would suit twelve individuals!).

I absolutely love driving up into the Hill Country and spending time, with eyes wide open, enjoying the scenery. It doesn't seem to matter what time of year you go, either. There is always something to do and see.
