Fredericksburg, Tx

On Saturday Jason & I headed to the Hill Country for a nice, relaxing long weekend away.  

Radar's ready for the trip.

Deer Ridge Lodge, oh how we love thee.  This is the same cabin we stayed at
last year.

Saturday we just hung out at the cottage and enjoyed the wildlife.

Sunday morning we woke up and enjoyed the sunrise.

Isn't it pretty?  I don't think I've ever watched the sunrise in the city.

We went to Alamo Springs Cafe for lunch.  They had an awesome band playing. 
We were also able to catch most of the Texans game on the TV.
(Sorry for the bad picture - it was taken with my phone.)

After lunch, we explored the country for a bit.  We found this old schoolhouse on
the Lyndon B. Johnson ranch near Stonewall.

Then we visited a few of the wineries.  This one's Becker.  We also went to
Pedernales, Woodrose, & Messina Hof.

Overall, it was a wonderful weekend.  I wish we could visit every weekend.
(Minus the 4+ hour drive, of course.)
