Where We Spent Today


It was a lovely day – we got there early, so as to be assured of a place to set out the umbrella and the blanket. We expected to beat a large crowd, which never really materialized. There were mostly families, setting up on the beach, or on the levels above the little cove, children and their parents, splashing about in the shallow water. The day pass is only good up until 6 PM, which probably cuts down on the rowdiness. The Air Force and the Army recreation services have a slice of recreation area on Canyon Lake, which is a short drive from San Antonio. The recreation area encompasses a small beach with picnic grounds adjacent, a dock and anchorage for small boats, rental cabins and cottages and RV spaces. Next year, we are thinking of renting one of the cottages for the 4th. Depends on how everything goes. We hope that things will go on in the Shire, as they always have, from day to day.

  1. Sadly, though you seek the peace of the shire, it appears that the frenzy and madness of the rest of the world will soon be beating a path to your doorstep, at least in some respects. I fear that the destruction that has been out latest regime ‘feature’ will continue. The few days supply of food on the shelves of local markets may not be enough given the regime intention to destroy fossil fuel use.
