Back to Texas

I flew back to Texas last week to go to a wedding with Frank's family.  It was a lot of fun to have both of his sisters and their boyfriends come home to spend time with all of us.  The next day, Frank and I drove (well, I was co-pilot) 6 hours west to the Frio river in Leakey, TX. We stayed with his friends Jimmy and Zack at the cabins that Jimmy's aunt and uncle manage.  There was a lot of tubing, stargazing and grilling assorted meats.  We even hiked Saddle "Mountain" (it is a mountain to these Texas folks...to me, a large hill).  I can honestly say a good time was had by all.  Sadly every good thing must come to an end and we came back yesterday. 

Now all I am doing is finalizing preparations to leave the US.  It really hasn't hit me yet that in 48 hours I will be en route to the Netherlands. Guess I better brush up on my Dutch.  I don't even know how to say hello or thank you or where is the bathroom?
