Short story time. I’m halfway through my two mile run on the back half of a nature preserve. And what comes scuttling across the path… a giant freaking tarantula. Me: please don’t let it chase me.

Keltin and I were starving after we reached Fredericksburg and after checking in we decided to stop in at a local burger joint that we had seen on the drive in. Alamo Springs Cafe isn’t exactly in the middle of nowhere but there are a couple of miles between in and the next nearest restaurant.

This last weekend was busy. It rained like crazy all day Saturday but Sunday was beautiful! One of my good friends was in town so I took her and a very excited Bear down to Katie’s Woods for a little hike along the lake shore. I know stuff like this looks neat but it bothers
Keltin and I live near a lake and enjoy walking to it in the evenings with typically a hyper Bear. Between the wildflowers and the sunset this was a wonderful little adventure.
