Why are we excited? |
Monday December 26, 2016
We woke up with overcast skies and a chance of morning thunder showers so we decided we weren't going to start on our trip until tomorrow. Larry had read in the newspaper that the Temple Culture Activities Center was having an art exhibit so we decided to check it out. We loaded Flo into the car and headed off, it was early and the car was filthy so we stopped by The Car Wash Barn and gave it a bath. After going through the car wash we were wiping it down when it started to sprinkle but we continued and by the time we were done vacuuming the rain had stopped, now the car looks a lot better. Onward to the CAC to look at the art exhibits. When we got there it was dark and there were no vehicles in the parking lot. Guess they decided to close down for the holidays. When we got back to house Larry worked on removing tar that we had found on the car. While Larry worked on removing the tar I made enchiladas for lunch.

Cabela's |
It stayed muggy all day but it didn't rain, after lunch I finished loading up the Minnie. I also baked the rest of the salted caramel cookies. Larry checked out the weather on the internet and the chance of rain for the next few days were low so we decided we would get a head start on our trip. We decided to go ahead and leave and we would stop at Cabela's south of Austin for the night. We left the house at 5:30. Last night when we went to Louise's for Christmas we forgot to take her Christmas stocking so on the way to Cabela's we stopped by her house and gave her the stocking, we didn't stay to visit, the Minnie hauling the car would not fit on the curb in front of her house. For dinner we stopped at the Jack in the Box which is right by Cabela's. We had the 4 for $4.00 special, which was 2 tacos, Jr. hamburger deluxe, a regular fry and a medium drink. That was plenty for Larry and I to share. Afterwards we went to Cabela's for the night. That's why we're so excited, are trip has begun.
