We had another beautiful day even though the winds were on the strong side.  John and I were up nice and early for our morning walk so he could get back in time to eat breakfast and get off to wood carvers by 9 a.m.  I spent my time while he gone getting the kitchen cleaned up and working on the computer.


Since the golf course is closed on Mondays and we couldn't play golf, we decided go to Del Rio this afternoon for some shopping and lunch.  After eating, we headed to Wal Mart for a few household items.  From there we stopped at the SAS Shoes outlet store.  John was looking for a new pair of walking shoes and I wanted a pair of dressier slip-ons.  We both found exactly what we wanted and left there very happy with our purchases.  Our last stop for the afternoon was HEB for some fresh produce and a few groceries.  We were soon back on the road to Brackettville.  Once we got the groceries and other purchases put away, we spent a quiet evening reading and watching some college basketball.
