These Pigs Won't Fly

Friday we had nothing planned so we just toured the city.  We started at the Riverside Park where the golf course is.  The Guadalupe River is back down to the level it belongs; just a week ago it was out of its banks.

We walked down the hill to get to this grassy landing.  Unfortunately the ground is still somewhat wet and we ended up slip-sliding down the hill.   

Next we headed off to another park of the park where the geese like to hang out.

One of these loud nuisances chased me down the sidewalk.  We've discovered that the locals come and feed them so when you get out of your car they come up to see what food you have for them.  They were disappointed with us.

Next we were off to lunch to our favorite restaurant in Victoria, and it is only a quarter of a mile from the RV park.  It doesn't look like much, but it's worth every penny!

I forgot to take a picture of the front of the building, but it has ghetto bars on all the windows.  It's a family run place that's been here forever.

This is the back where they do the actual smoking/BBQing.  I had the sliced pork meal while Mark had the ribs and pork - comes with two sides and bread. 

Saturday was the "Market Days" in the park.  We really wanted one of these metal flying pig yard arts, but they were $25. 

Each afternoon was spent in the pool and hot tub.  Mark says the pool is too cold to get in since the evenings cool off to the 50s; I say its still refreshing to get it, especially when I have the 103 hot tub to get into afterwards.
