Of Birds and BarBQue!

I know it wasn't a full moon this weekend because the "super perigee" full moon was last weekend, but something was just a tiny bit askew last Friday and then on through the part of the weekend.

Belton Lake: March 5-6, 2011

This weekend, we took a short drive north from Austin to Belton Lake, a Corps of Engineers facility located in, ...wait for it..., Belton, TX. Our reservations were in the Live Oak Ridge Park which is immediately adjacent to Belton Lake Dam.  (Map of the Park.)

Good Grief!

File this under "things they don't tell you when you buy an RV." 

Since the RV show, we have been hitting the stores buying stuff for the new trailer.  It's just like outfitting a new home only things are a lot more expensive now than when we set up our 1st home.
