Rock Wall

Welcome to Seguin, Texas

BIRDS ATTACK!!

Today dad was walking a long minding is own business when a Pigen swooped down and touch the top of his hair!!!

Bee 2 - Kyle/Van 0

We had a Bee today that loved Kyle’s Dr Pepper. As a side note it’s a funny thing that Kyle will eat something that falls on the floor but won’t drink after a bee??? This wasn’t any ordinary bee, he really wanted this Dr Pepper. After we shooed him away I watched him as he kept his distance then after he noticed that I was still watching him he hid behind a wall for a while hoping I would loose focus. When he saw I was still on the alert he circled the building and block to come in from my back side to get quick drink. Final score Bee 2 and Kyle/Van 0

Eating by the River!!

We decided to eat on the River Walk along the San Antonio river today at a place called DICK's.
Our waiter was really funny!!!

Kyle had his usual - Cheeseburger with ketchup. And I had Cesar salad with grilled chicken.

BTW did you know San Antonio is the 7th largest city in the USA
