Caching, Family & hanging out with Paganfolk
Sunday morning my Dad & I hung out and visited. We went to breakfast at El Mercado Norte and had great food. At 12:30 Martha & I pickec up Rayna from her hotel and we had a bite to eat at Paradise (I just had a small dinner salad being stuffed from breakfast hours earlier). We then went down to the Barton Creek greenbelt area and started hiking in the woods, mostly not finding caches. So we did some edge-of-greenbelt and urban caching and then headed back to north Austin and did my mother's three caches and one on the trail nearby. Then the whole crew - Martha's family, Dad, me & Rayna converged on Kerbey Lane for a yummy dinner. Rayna & I got the cache in their parking lot, bringing us up to nine caches for the day. Go us! It was really nice. Rayna & I went back to Dad's place and shared stories for about an hour before he took us back to the hotel.
Monday we slept in and then headed back to north Austin to meet Gordon & Ellen (from local CoG) at a restaurant called Madras Pavillion where we had excellent South Indian vegetarian buffett for lunch. Our friend David from Alburqueque (CoG) joined us. He had also been here for the SAA meetings. We had a great visit. Then David gave us a lift to Tesoros Trading Company where we spent almost an hour browsing an amazing collection of folk art. Then we came back to the hotel and chilled for a couple of hours before heading back out to Ellen & Jim's wonderful home in South Austin where they and David and Rayna & I had a wonderful dinner (thanks to the Central Market) and hot tubbing and visiting. I am so happy to have had this chance to meet Ellen & Jim and to enjoy this great evening of conversation!
