Earlier this month my family and I went to Canyon, TX, to see the musical, Texas. The show has singing, dancing, acting, real animals, and it was all right in front of the audience. I think our most favorite part was the lightning strike. The strike even broke a tree in two. The sound effects and lighting were amazing!
We went to the Panhandle Plains Historic Museum the next morning. I was well pleased with their skeletons and mounted animals, especially the birds. We all liked the mini pioneer town as well.
On the 15th, we lost a dear friend. Belvadere, the family ranch dog, was 15 years old and one of the best.
This week Little J. and I spent some nights with our grandma. Two of our cousins also came and we had a wonderful time. We cleaned, painted, had a cook out, talked, played cards, and had more fun. I took this picture while we were trying to build a fire for burgers, hot dogs, and chicken.
These last handful of days have actually been on the chilly side. I forget that it's not already fall!
Today's the 20th. It seems this month has gone by fast, yet, thinking about what we did a couple weeks back seems a long time ago. I wonder what the rest of this August will bring. : )
Sometimes, the natural settings offer the best vacations with the family. There are also times when Mother Nature will deliver a better show than one that has been staged by actors. Enjoying the fresh air and the beauty of the land is relaxing and something that every family should be able to enjoy.
