Hope your weekend is off to a good start. It's a hot start here in Granger, Texas! Good Grief Gladys!
I went out this morning to run errands and here's what we have at 11:16 a,m,....
97 Degrees ALREADY!
Here are a few pictures of things around the hood on my trek out in the heat....
Froggage on the rocker on the front porch! I think the little guy was trying to get to the bugs near the light! Smart me thinks!
Hay Baling Time In The Country!
It's so pretty to see a ton of these rolled up in the fields. How the sun catches these golden bales is amazing!
You may have heard me talk about the Weir Country Store before...It's our lifeblood out here. The only store for several miles. Known for two things...The highest price ever for gasoline and their amazing hamburgers! They have the most INCREDIBLE old fashioned hamburgers....Oh My Gosh!! Where else can you get worms, propane, snack cakes, hamburgers, gas and bacon all in one place!
Always something going on across from the Country Store...A lady selling her goods....
A few posts back, I mentioned how they have been redoing the roads in this heat...Well, they look pretty good! Good Job Guys!
My first house! (On the right with the big brick fence behind it) It was my pride and joy! Especially the yard and the landscaping...There was a large open field behind it that looked out onto San Gabriel Park. Gorgeous Views! I was always worried that a gas station would be built behind the house. It was truly one of the main reasons I moved to the country. We would hear rumors and I was always unsettled about it and decided to put it on the market to find peace with country living.....well.....
You Got It! Gas station and liquor store! I must say it would have been nice to go through the back fence to grab some bacon if you ran out!
Georgetown's claim to fame...Inner Space Caverns!
My Happy Place...IKEA!
And the limestone quarry! Austin White Lime Company in Round Rock, Texas...
Well, back from my errands before it reached 105 today Yahooo! Gotta get back to the studio!
Have an AWESOME weekend!
