Hill Country with LBJ

The ride to Fredericksburg TX was scenic and historical. We stopped in Stonewall to tour the LBJ National Historical Park and State Park. Another stamp in my passport and way more interesting than anyone of us would have guessed. 

Fredericksburg was a cute town with lots of shops, restaurants and wine tasting rooms, although we still have not sipped Texas wine. We did, however, enjoy a great lunch at Mamacita's Restaurant on Main Street.  

We found a comforting Japanese garden on the grounds of the National Museum of the Pacific War and enjoyed peaceful contemplation on 9/11 and Ray's birthday. Chester Nimitz, a fleet admiral in the US Navy and Commander in Chief in the Pacific during WWII, was born in Fredericksburg TX. 

Back at condo, we toasted Ray with our new favorite cocktail: grapefruit gin & tonic, watched a hilarious movie "RV" and had banana cream pie for dinner. It was a good day.
