The cows in Wisconsin don't have those things on their head

Recon

Not much to do on the construction side today, so John and I went undercover in Salado to scout out the competition.

These arrived still smelling like wet paint!!

Home for the Holidays

Even though we weren't able to spend Thanksgiving in Minneapolis/Ft. Myers with my clan or in New Mexico/Chicago with any of John's clan, we did spend it at home in Tow with good friends. Donna (best friend in the universe) and Joe (love of her life) spend their winters in Goliad, Texas now and they drove over for Thanksgiving. It is so nice to have them close to us here as well (they are just a few cabins down from our A-frame in Birchwood, Wisconsin during the summers at Kehoe's Northern Retreat). Jeanette's husband, Bob, is on the road so he wasn't able to come over, but Jeanette (our realtor and friend extraordinaire) came and brought their son Andrew. Dinner was marvelous, even without any gravy!

We had another great evening at our neighbors house last night. Carole Ellis' home sits on top of the hill with breathtaking views of Lake Buchanan. She is a wonderful hostess (and cook). We caught up with Carole, Tom, Theo and Kathy and watched the football game by the fire. They were all very positive about our new venture (or too nice to say anything else). We are so lucky to count them as our friends.

Bears won in OT, so life is still good.

Falls #1

We can take the boat from Lake Buchanan and go up the Colorado River. This is the first set of waterfalls on the river. We actually took this picture in August when Em and Dan came to visit.
