One Mile @ a Time aka (You never know when you will break down)

Thursday April 29, 2021.  The Legendary Alpaca Farm, 1/2 way between Waco and Fort Worth.  LOL...these guys are so different..they just make you laugh.  John thinks they were the inspiration for the Star Wars creatures that the aliens rode from another planet.  Word for word from John. I think they are cute as can be!!!  Beautiful wooded 40 acre working ranch. An interesting fact, Alpaca’s are very thoughtful animals....they all poop in the same pile.   These are some of the cute babies..called Cría.    Yes Mr Turkey you are very handsome!  Gina owns the property and works day and night feeding all the various animals.  49 Alpacas, lots of chickens, 4 ducks, 3 dogs...some Ginnie birds and a big Tom Turkey. There is a store where you can buy Alpaca blankets, mittens, hats, sweaters and she sells her eggs. Anyone want to try a turkey egg?   Yummy...we did a taste test..one of Gina’s fresh eggs and our cage free eggs from the fridge. Y...

Each bag has 8 books and a discussion guide, each bag is a different book.  All the books sounded good, I took a picture of all the titles and will share! This is Baylor University, the drive-by version.  We...

    Tuesday April 27, 2021.  Thank you “Gas Buddy” app...$2.21 per gallon!  Stopped at Buc-ee’s ..a small station in Gruene, only 128 gas pumps..and a store twice the size of Costco. We need to stop and figure out where we are going...here is a nice park..level, ran the generator, took showers.  The middle island in this lake is loaded with white birds....all different kinds, egrates, white turns and great white herons. Waco TX, home to the Magnolia Silos, Chip and Joanna Gaines Fixer upper people.  Beautiful grounds, with little shops all around a large grass area.   Joanna renovated this church and moved it to the property.   Out back are about 10 different food trucks, cute as can be. Selling a variety of tasty tidbits, love the Gourmet Grilled Cheese.   We are standing in front of a ball park, kids size.  Lots of games, bocce ball, corn hole, lounging chairs. One shop dedicated to “man” stuff.   Just a few pics of the inside of ...
