In this our first year of the retirement adventure, I taught Toolkits at UTEP and the University of Houston and spoke at the Midwest Higher Education Compact in St. Louis. I was able to teach at South Dakota State in Brookings, South Dakota; at Texas Tech in Lubbock, Texas; and present on Master Planning at APPA Annual Conference in Denver with Heather. I went to Santa Fe, New Mexico for a consulting job, and to Dayton, Ohio for another one. When Elizabeth wanted to go to an RV Quilting retreat, it was my turn to follow her.

We started out by going to date night at Mamacita’s – remember the Alamo!

Another night we went to the Cowboy Steakhouse, a fantastic family-owned restaurant. There was a wall full of paintings of Texas landmarks. If you’re in Kerrville, this place is worth a side trip.

Louise Hays Park is right in the middle of town.

There was what the quilt folks called a shop hop – a trip to area quilt shops. These pictures are from our driving loop through Medina and Bandera.

We enjoyed our week in the Texas Hill Country and are making plans to return. We hunted up a butcher shop on Saturday for ur Sunday grilling, and the beef we got at Bernhard Meat Market was as good as it gets.
