RIP George / Cancelled trip / Exceptional drought

I have been sad since I read of the passing of fellow blogger George Yates of Our Awesome Travels yesterday. I never had the privilege of meeting him or his wife, Suzie, in person but somehow I feel like I have known them for a long time. George was a daily blogger who shared his life, recipes and RV'ing adventures freely with his readers.

He was the inspiration for my daily walks. A happy and positive person to the end with his trademark smile, vest, and straw cowboy hat.  He and Suzie chose to share the final chapter of his life with his followers and I deeply admire their decision. He will be dearly missed. Rest in Peace George.

I seldom make my posts before midnight but I did yesterday since I had an early morning appointment and needed to get to bed early. This morning it was raining hard and since I was heading out-of-town to where it was raining worst I decided to cancel my trip.

I am not complaining about the rain we really need it in this area as I thought we were in severe drought but it turned out to be an exceptional drought which is the worst. My parent's house is old and every time it rains I cringe at the thought of discovering a new leak. Fortunately, no new ones emerged today. It is supposed to rain all night as well as tomorrow. We had a low of 50 and a high of 71 degrees today.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

Dependent on a To Do List

For some reason, I have been waking up very early lately.  Have I mentioned that I am not a morning person?  I even considered driving to Stripes to buy breakfast tacos and hot chocolate...but the thought of having to get dressed and then put on make-up made me change my mind.

These days I need to make a To Do List or I will forget a thing or two. Yesterday I forgot to go by the bank!  So like it or not I had to make another trip to town this afternoon. 

This is the third time I go to Dollar Tree looking for bread but found none.  However, I found so many other items...I saved a ton! 

I was reading a new blog to me "Our Awesome Travels"  https://geosuzie.blogspot.com/2019/02/blue-sunny-skies-still-cool-wind-silly.html
and they blogged about their trip to a local pizzeria called "Silly Al's Pizza".

It has been a while since I had pizza so I headed to Domino's and came home with one. Truth be told it was not that good...too bad Silly Al's Pizza is very far away :-(

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

What can I say?  You can not win a game if you have so many turnovers. Teams need to be able to win on the road!!!
