Fredericksburg

This post may also be titled, Please Send My Cats as I Have Moved. I have wanted to come here for a long time, and my wonderful husband made it happen on this trip. Houses in Fredericksburg are often featured in Country Living, so I knew it had to be something special. So far I haven't been disappointed. We drove around tonight, saying "look at that house!" and "did you see that log house?" I have to keep reminding myself to close my mouth. It is a cool place.
For supper, we ate at the Auslander Biergarten. I am usually a big fan of eating outside, but we were already so hot from walking around that we opted to wait until there was a table in the air conditioned dining room. It was worth the wait! I had a delicious chicken fried steak and David had Käsewurst. It was excellent.
On the walk back to our hotel, we saw the late day sun shining on these two outbuildings across an empty lot. Everything here looks like it should be a postcard. We will be here all day tomorrow, and I am already planning to return. Maybe when it's cooler. :)

Hi, Erin.

I've been to the Fredericksburg in Virginia, but not the one in Texas. This one looks really great, too.

What happened to your cats? Did they take off when they found out that you had moved? That will make me cry if that happened to you! That would be SO tragic!

You're in my prayers~

ERIN: Do you like to read a good mystery? Then don't miss out on a chance to win a FREE copy of Kathryn Lilley's debut novel,"Dying To Be Thin: A Fat City Mystery". Read my review of the book and the simple CONTEST rules on my blog, Cynde's Got The Write Stuff. HURRY, though because the contest ENDS at midnight on Sunday, 12 July 2009. Good luck!

(One more note: there's been a problem with some of my links in the other posts I've made...but THESE are definitely correct! I'm awfully sorry for the confusion. Please forgive me! I made a boo-boo!)

I LOVE these travel posts. Love them.

Those doughnuts look "to die for" and I'm not even much of a doughnut connoisseur.

Love traveling "with" you!
