Mary remains at home in California tending to medical issues. She had successful carotid artery surgery on Wednesday, November 14th, returned home the following day and is in the process of recuperation.
The motorhome is parked at Thousand Trails about 40 miles west of San Antonio.
Two days ago I took the Bronco and drove the about 20 miles back to Bandera, Texas. I say back to, because I drove through Bandera on the way to my current parking spot at Thousand Trails with the motorhome, but did not stop.
Bandera calls itself…The Cowboy Capital of the World. You can read about Bandera by clicking this link…

Since I’ll be at Thousand Trails for another about two weeks and all I have to show from there are deer photos, I’m going to stretch out the photos I took in Bandera over three days. For this second day, some photos of downtown Bandera…

The major intersection of Bandera…
where they still ride horses on Main Street…
where, if you’ve nothing better to do,, you grab your guitar and sing songs for passers-by…
where If you are hungry, you wander into the O.S.T. (Old Spanish Trail) Restaurant that has been there since 1921…
where they have saddles for seats at the no-liquor or beer eating bar…
where they have a Chuck Wagon buffet bar…
where they are still doing a lively business in the mid-afternoon…
and where I enjoyed a great tasting Tex-Mex meal of two chicken Chalupas…
Enjoying Cowboy towns is another joy of the full-time RVing lifestyle!

Enjoying 65-75 degree temperatures most of the year is a primary joy in the RVing lifestyle!
