Tuesday December 30, 2014 Kyle, TX

Today dawned cold and windy, possibly the coldest day we had experienced here in Texas this year.



Green nailed Vanessa
We huddled around our coffee, TV and computers.  In the afternoon the ladies went out for manicures and shopping.

















Brandon and.I went out caching.  We found two that I hadn't found last year and one that had been placed more recently.  The first cache we found was just outside the historic section of the Kyle Cemetery.  It was a gallon container, it's hard to think I missed it last year.  Brandon found one old grave marker from the 1800's with the name Kyle on it.  The oldest date he found was 1834. We didn't see the marker but a grand nephew of George Washington is reported to be buried in this cemetery.  The second one taken off my DNF list was in a stump in a park that had been flooded before our visit last year.

We went for dinner at an Olive Garden Restaurant in New Braunfels.  The restaurant was very busy and we waited for about 35 minutes to be seated.  The food was good and our waitress was arguably the best waitress I have ever experienced.  One of the chefs brought out our meal  There was some mix up with Dana's order.  She orders a dish they no longer have on the menu.  The chef apologized and said he would have it out in 5 minutes, he did.  Some how a second serving of Dana's order was prepared and given to us at no charge.  Yum, leftovers for tomorrow.

Some TV and computer time finished the evening at about 11 PM.
