Great TX Road Trip (+ New Mexico) Happy and Random

 It's all starting again!  The second annual Great Texas Road Trip, formerly called the Big Texas Birthday Tour.  This year we're including a trip over the New Mexico border in our Texas trip.  We started in Dallas Saturday.  Then on to Carlsbad, New Mexico, then down to Big Bend National Park, and possible a crossing into Mexico.  We'll see. Should be great fun! Today is Cavern Day. Can't wait to tell you all about it! But for now...

Basektball joke in case you aren't a fan.

Awww Poor Doggy!  But he's so cute!

Crazy!

Much more valuable!

And last, but not least...

Have a great week!  Please visit Stacy's Random Tuesday Thoughts and Sandee's Happy Tuesday!

Fun Photos

 Today's blog post is brought to you by COWS!  Specifically, these are cows who live on the Blisswood Ranch in Cat Spring, Texas.

  I think they're actually pretty cute!

I think this is the only photo I took of a cow that isn't a black cow.

Mama and her two babies!

This is my favorite cow photo!

Fun Photos of Bison at the Ranch

 Up close and personal with bison at Blisswood Bed & Breakfast Ranch.  They were seriously thisclose and we got to feed them.

They call this one Big Daddy.

Standing right next to our 4-wheeler wanting more food!

Read here to find out why they are bison and not buffalo.

Birthday Week is Over

 And boy, was it a blast!  We did the "Texas Triangle" with an extra stop in a little town called Cat Spring before heading to San Antonio, Austin, Dallas, and back home.  I call it "The Big Texas Birthday Tour!"  TBTBT, for short.

Our first stop was Cat Spring (approximately where the Interstate sign is between Houston and San Antonio on the map above). It's a tiny, sleepy blip on the map where there is a bed and breakfast ranch.  It was so peaceful!  We stayed in a cute little cabin, got to feed lemurs, go horseback riding, take an animal safari, use our private hot tub, walk to the lake, picnic, S'mores, and so much more. 

 We did my birthday dinner at Texas de Brazil.

  I love these types of restaurants!  It was fun to splurge.

 We also got to spend time with some family that no longer lives nearby. It was all-around a great vacation.

And now...

As my age is increasing...

This is my kind of omelette!

Hahahaha!

This is a valid question...

And last, but not least...

It too me a while to see both!  Which do you see?

I'm linking up with Stacy and Sandee today.

Have a great week!
