Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning how to dance in the rain.

Shopping, Bluebonnets, and Bistro 108

Do you like this post?

Yesterday Karen and I drove up to the Round Top/Warrenton big semi-annual antique sale. We left early and enjoyed the drive up seeing big fields of bluebonnets in bloom...they must have gotten more rain than us down South. We started in Round Top at the craft market around the square, looking for something new and unique. The weather was perfect......sunny, cool, with a light breeze.
I found a cute shirt and some jewelry. We had lunch at Klumps, eating a hamburger outside while people watching. We then headed to Warrenton, were I got a pair of sandals, another shirt and Karen finally found a shirt she liked. We spent the rest of the afternoon wandering among all the booths, talking with vendors, and enjoying the weather.
We were talking to a couple that were selling cute glass bird feeders, looking at all of them, and walking around the booth when Karen informed me that I was standing very near a live bird.....Oh my gosh! I hadn't even noticed that I was so near a "Killer Bird". Karen thought it was very funny, grabbed my camera and took this photo to document the moment.


Our shopping done, we headed to La Grange for dinner at Bistro 108 and arrived in time for the early bird special. The food was great, Karen relished each spoon of her bisque and we split a piece of Coconut Cream Pie. We were lucky to get a table on the patio, and enjoyed a delicious meal. Stuffed we headed back to Victoria with our loot.
