Surprise!

Surprise, just another cup. We went to the Texas Grill for breakfast but I didn’t take any coasters so had to sketch my cup in the little sketchbook with a Pilot ball point pen.

Denise, our waitress, showed us some of the cups they have that they don't use.  One has a cat that is sitting in the middle of the cup and another had sort of legs to make it taller.  Weird.

This is the same cup I used, just back and front.  Usually there is only one side with a picture.

Really not necessary for the Scavenger Hunt as I already posted a mug.  It is a continuation of the cups at the Texas Grill.

Reminder:  choose not to be afraid to live instead of being afraid to die.  We try to keep doing as many things as we can.  We bought our own groceries, eat out, went to a play and to see the dinosaurs when they invaded Austin.  We went to see our grandchildren and great grands in October in Kentucky.   

We are so anxious for live music and to go to a real baseball game.  Texas Longhorns are playing but the seating is all screwed up with the distancing so we watch on TV or listen on-line.  The Longhorns play the Aggies in College Station this evening.  Hook 'em Horns!

 Texas is starting to have outdoor sports.  Yay.  Larry has some work again.  

Yikes! Is the triceratops about to get Gene?

Take a day trip before gasoline goes up to $5 a gallon.  Maybe we will go down to the coast this week and eat some fish.  It is good to see some traffic jams.  That is what scares me.  Crazy drivers.

I can't imagine a dinosaur tuff enough to take on Gene.

CTAC put on a concert last Friday evening called Lost Shaker of Salt - a Jimmy Buffet type band. There were lots of old geezers (like me) there wearing their Hawaiian shirts and flip flops. Very few of them were wearing their masks. One of ladies on the CTAC board was horrified. She was wearing her mask. But she had had her shots as I assumed most of the old folks there had. I think people are feeling much more freedom.

Bag Blog, I would like to see you relaxed in your Hawaiian shirt and flip flops! I hope people are getting out and living again. I see some of the artists are having in person workshops in the summer. I hope some of the artists here will even go paint outside with me. Crazy to be so afraid to live.
