Lone Star RV Resort - Austin, TX

We braved I35 to go downtown, where we took a 90 minute tour through the area. We had lunch in the 1886 Cafe in the Driscoll Hotel and still had time to tour the State Capital!

We were able to see friends from the Killeen area, some of whom we haven't seen since the 1980's.

We traveled to Driftwood, TX to meet our friend Joe, his wife Pam, and their daughter at the "Salt Lick BBQ". The slogan on the billboards for this place say "you can smell our pits for miles". The sauce is put on the meat with mops! Great 'Q! The visit and rememberance of old times was fabulous.

We were also able to have lunch with our former neighbors, Nancy and Dale, in Round Rock at Chuy's. The best Tex-Mex around! We laughed a lot during lunch and then decided to hit the outlet mall together. We "saved" quite a lot, as you could tell from the store receipts (all claiming the amount saved on your purchases today).

Traveled to Killeen to see Clarence and Shirlene. Their house was Steve's very first attempt at Halloween "trick or beer" in the early '80s. It was semi-successful. Their new house is large but cozy and we had a great visit. Stopped to see Nancy and Dale at their house, since we were in the neighborhood, and visited again. Finally were able to get our new TX driver's license in Killeen!

We toured the LBJ Presidential Library and Museum. We weren't aware before of the amount of important legislation that was passed during his presidency. We also visited the LadyBird Johnson Wildflower Center. Not as much color as we had hoped, but TX is in the middle of a drought.

Toured another Del Webb location in Georgetown.

Now, on to Lake Texoma...
