We had a nice stateroom.
A nice balcony.
An appropriate view.
A blue-water wake.
And deck chairs galore.

…is a big honking ship!
4,000 passengers. 1,500 crew. Oh. And we’re back.

Eddie, Annie, and Henry have been dropped off at Boy’s Camp for the week. (Four Paws Bed and Biscuit.) We all went for a walk at Cibolo Nature Preserve, then dinner at The Dog and Pony Show (a restaurant) in Boerne. We’re all back home, packed and ready to go. We’re up at 5, gone by 6 tomorrow morning. No phone, no internet. Savor the silence.
Friday
Never know what you’re going to find in Texas. Drive around, you might see a cedar waxwing,
…an exotic goat.
…or a wildebeast.

Travel day. We’ve gone from Sandpipers in Edinburg, to Jeff and Carol’s in Bandera. https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=201563872774147443355.0004c50946d41d08c1704&msa=0&ll=29.764377,-99.008789&spn=11.411439,26.784668 270 miles. I figure there’s no need to say Texas when I say where we are, because there is no way we’re getting out of Texas in one day! Anyway, there are further plans afoot. We’ll hang out here in the motorhome at Jeff and Carol’s for a couple days. On Saturday we’ll put Annie, Henry, and Eddie in Doggie Camp for a week. Early Sunday morning the four of us drive to Galveston and get on a boat, the Carnival Magic. Starting Sunday evening, our boat takes us to the Western Caribbean. Two days at sea, one day in Honduras, one day in Belize, one day on Cozumel, then two days at sea to get back to Galveston. It probably won’t suck. We’re not taking computers or cellphones, so there will be radio silence for a week. We’ll be off the grid. Cold turkey. Completely off the planet. We’ll be sure to let you all know when we’re back.
