A Merry Christmas to you




No, it's not a Renoir

it's people just sitting along the Riverwalk in San Antonio.

And the lights hanging down form the trees…..
doesn't it make it look like it's some sort of magical rain?


Well, it's quite enjoyable riding in a boat as carolers serenade you 
form bridges overhead
or singing on the passing boats!

May you have a Merry Christmas, from down in San Antonio,
where you can still find a Christmas celebration!

South Texas' Autumn

From our Thanksgiving blog, the stories of the big cold front coming our way, and the fact that we are approaching the Winter Solstice,
you might think we too are in winter.

While this is what you'll see if you look for it,


you will notice that
there is a lot of green still here.


And when the temperature reached 84 yesterday,
even our snowman was wearing her tennis hat!
