    Saturday is our 30th anniversary so we are going on a trip to Fredericksburg in south Texas.
    We are leaving Thursday morning and will be home Monday evening. To avoid the highway we are going down a 'backroad' thru several small towns where we hope to find some cool little 'junque' shops to browse thru and maybe come up with more treasures.

    We stayed in this same cabin on our 20th anniversary and loved it. It faces east so sitting on that patio in the late afternoon, watching deer wander thru the field on the neighbors land and listening to the Peacocks in the distance was very relaxing.
    If I get up early enough I can sit out there to have my tea and watch the sun come up.

    I will have my camera and two cards so I should be able to take around 1500 photos, but I won't bore you all with all of them....just the pretty ones.
    I won't have the laptop, but I think there will be plenty to do to keep the GardenStew withdrawal to a minimum. ;)

    Thanks so much for the well wishes. This has been a short 30 years, man it is hard to believe it has been that long ;)

    I am really hoping the Wildseed Farms gardens are in full bloom this weekend. http://www.wildseedfarms.com/bloom-update

    Bags are packed, hoses are set in the front and back garden with timers on them for watering a couple of times this weekend.
    The house isn't clean but then it usually isn't while we are home so why should I clean it for while we are away :rolleyes:

    Hope everyone has a good weekend, talk to you again either Monday evening or Tuesday.
