Our Winter Home

Our usual course of action is to spend the winter in Bastrop, TX and then the summer in the NW. This year we were going to go to the East coast and see some relatives in our journey through Florida and Maine. Our plans were changed after visiting the Dr. and having to deal with some medical issues. All that is behind us now and we ended up staying in Bastrop for the summer as well. We keep hearing the phrase... the weather is unusual. We broke heat records from 82 yrs ago and we hope we won't have to do this again any time soon. Now we know why we travel in the summer (up north). Anyway we thought you might like to see where we live. These pictures were taken in March, so the trees still look like winter.


This is what our place looks like from the front. There is a double car garage with a multipurpose room behind it and the garaport for the Montana on the side.
This is on the back corner of Brett & Paula's property.

This is the back end where we have room to sit in a couple of rockers!! That is a gardenia bush in the bottom left corner. When it blooms, the aroma is heavenly.


These are fire ant hills. We don't like them...


The big oak tree is in the front yard near the road. It is really gorgeous with all it's leaves.



A favorite climbing place for the boys.


This is the big house where Brett, Paula and the boys live.
