Summertime!

I don't care what the moon and sun tell us, Memorial Day marks the start of summer, and since Memorial Day is over, summer is here.

To celebrate summer, and since I had the day off, Carrie and I visited Fredericksburg, TX. I highly recommend a trip down to the hill country if you are just looking to get out and enjoy some down time. There isn't a whole lot to keep you entertained, so you might as well bring the wife and dog. That's what I did. On Sunday morning, we climbed enchanted rock. Again, I highly recommend a trip to Enchanted Rock State Park. Banjo and I got to the top of the rock, and Carrie got most of the way up there. She pooped out near the top. We ditched her and went to the top.

Then Sunday afternoon, I went and saw Darrell. Just so you know, D is good. He's got 3 great little girls.

While in Fredericksburg, Carrie and went to eat at an upscale German restaurant (my favorite). As a reference, our plates were about $19 each. (for Fredericksburg, that is four stars). A table full of folks came and sat down right next to us. I had the Cheese Schnitzel and Carrie had some other sort of Schnitzel. The other table ordered as follows:

1. broiled skinless chicken breast
2. Grilled chicken salad
3. Chicken fried steak
4. cheeseburger

Why in the world visit the best German restaurant EVER and order this nonsense? Go to chili's, Friday's, Black Eyed Pea, etc. Why not go to Texas de Brazil and order a hot dog. Go to PF Changs and get yourself chicken fingers. I'll go to restaurants and see out of place food and ask, "who orders that?" I guess I now know, these folks from Fredericksburg.
