In the early mornings and evenings on the ranch the deer come out to play.
These are cattle from a special herd maintained on the ranch, descendants from those that President LBJ raised. They are kept the same size/color standards as they were in 1960’s. Which wasn’t that long ago but is still kind of neat. These are Herefords I think they said, very shaggy and orange.
One downside to the ranch, no wi-fi and very poor cell phone reception. We found a nearby park, which had wi-fi. So all the grown ups were happy to be able to check email and Facebook while the kids played.
This trip was a grand adventure for Lady. She was so glad to get to come with us and she quickly commandeered one of the living room chairs as her own.
We went “into town” for lunch, and some shopping. Shopping on the Friday after Thanksgiving in Fredericksburg is nuts! (But fun)
Naturally Will and I had a different sort of trip than what we did when we went by ourselves back in March. But it was really fun to share our favorites spots with family.
We did manage a few wineries!
These were taken around sunset.
I liked the lights in the trees.
This picture below I finally got what I was after, with the glass in focus and the lights in the trees blurring out behind. It took a few tries though! I sort of think this one could be in a magazine or something, I was pleased with how it came out.
