An Excursion with Grandad

Yesterday was one of those nice warmer days

even though it was kinda overcast - we're expecting snow in a day or two, so we decided to take a short excursion with Grandad to the nearby Lake Fort Phantom, and on to Albany.

Grandad wanted to go see where the new Texas State Veterans Cemetery was, and so that was our first stop. It was quite impressive , in its brand-spanking-newness

Then it was off to Fort Phantom Hill Lake , and onward to Albany!

You can't be out in the country in Texas without seeing some oil rigs pumping away :)

The Beehive didn't get our business for dinner because they weren't gonna be open for another hour.

We ended up at a the Prairie Star Convenience Store, Deli and Grill ( and Gas Station ) for sandwiches

Full and well-er, excursed ( I doubt that's even a word ), we headed off into the sunset.

Nice hats. Is it something most people wear everyday?

letti said...

Hi Ams, well, a lot of people wear baseball hats, but I guess there's a way higher percentage of people here in texas who wear ( cowboy ) hats over here compared to the rest of the country, and yeah, david and his dad usually have a hat on whenever they go anywhere :)

Babies and Cowboy Hats are always cute.

Sometimes you just need to do a road trip like that.
