End Of Summer

First, let me say that The Rockport Art Show was great. The weather wasn't bad. Hot but not miserable. The show has a new director and he did a bang up job. All went smoothly, sales were good and we were once again located next to Joey and Paula Blazek from Beaumont. Besides Joey being this year's poster artist, they are just very nice people.
We managed to sample the meals at several great restaurants and checked out one of the marinas for a possible new home for our boat!

Back at home, we have survived the mini drought and then the wonderful rains. Weather gets weirder and weirder. We have had one "norther" and are expecting another? In August? Crazy.

Next up on the bell agenda will be Septemberfest in Midland in mid September. I think the museum grounds are back to being able to be used again after their refurbishment. I'll post again about the show.

Finally, for those of you who have followed our personal life and know about our boat adventures and plans.... I am going to wake up that other blog listed in out "links" - A Relevant Life. I started that blog early in my retirement which coincided with the purchase of Hey Jude, our trawler. Lots of plans have come and gone, but we now have made a big kick start to a  commitment to her and to ourselves.  She is going to leave her home at Lake Travis and be transported down to the Texas coast.
If you want to know more, make your way over to that other blog and I will fill you in.
