"Nowhere" Texas

Dec 26, 2006 13:14

So the past few days I've kinda disappeared. For Xmas, my grandparents and I drove out to what I'm calling "nowhere" Texas because I'm not quite sure its even part of a city. After we past through Austin it was a little further out. I knew we were getting close when I lost all Radio Channels. I think maybe 1 was coming through, but otherwise it was nothing. Very strange to hit seek on the stereo and see it just loop over itself a few times.

Anyways, we get there and get settle in. The house was amazing. Can't really explain it much better than that. I was staying in the downstairs Appt which had its own kitchen, living room, bathroom, and bedroom. Other than settle in we didn't really do much else on this night.

The next day I went out towards San Antonio with my Uncle to drop off my little cousins with their Mom (my big cousin) who I havn't seen in like 8 years. On the way back we detoured over to Enchanted Rock. I went on a field trip there when I was in like 8th grade so it was neat seeing it again. We didn't climb it cause it was raining and we didn't have the time, but I got some good pictures of it. Once again not really anything going on that night either. I had one of those life questioning moments of "what am I doing" while I was laying in bed that night though.

Then Xmas day I went out and took a tour of my uncle's Vinyards and then the Winary. Its not his winary but its where his grapes go. That was really interesting. Got to see how the whole process goes. Also got to take a bottle. Then later on we went to the Colorado Bend State Park. It was scenic. Had a nice little river flowing next to some descently high cliffs. Throughout the day I got the necessary Texas pictures. Cows, donkeys, cacti, oil pumps, etc. Funny how I fight for how non-country Texas is but I took the pictures that go against my arguement, but they're fun pictures.

We drove back home that night and I opened my second Xmas gift of the day and then went to sleep.
