SAN ANTONIO FAMILY TIME – ROAD TRIP FEBRUARY 2010

RIIVER WALK U031We spent time in the beautiful and historic city of San Antonio on one of our first RV trips.   We celebrated the new Millenium on January 1 2000 at the city-wide party.  We really enjoyed our stay then and loved the area, but now we love it more because we have a grandchild (and his parents)here!     

We got to see the kids and their new home.  And we spent some Saturday time together on San Antonio's historic and beautiful River Walk and in one of the nearby artisan neighborhoods.

Here are the three guys — Ryan, his Dad Pete, and his Grandpa Bill — on the River Walk.  As you can tell, it wasn't a very warm weekend.

USE (2) Ryan is the grandson who spent a couple of weeks with us at Fern Ridge Shores last August while his mom and dad were finishing up their preparations for moving here from Tacoma, Washington.  Here he is at his new Texas home  with one member of his reptile and amphibian menagerie.  (It is a leopard lizard, which is native to Afghanistan and Iraq.  Because its habitat is being destroyed by the war there, Ryan explained to us, it is now an endangered species.) 

It was a great visit.  Not long enough, but we'll be back!

Here are a few more of Ryan's animals: (Click to enlarge)

    Great pictures. If Ryan catches any more turtles; He can
    lease them to Jim Carrey for his next picture. (“Yurtle the
    Turtle”)

  5. It looks like you had a nice day on the River Walk. The two times I’ve been there it was hot and humid which detracted from this lovely setting.
    As for the call of the hawk, it is more of a shreik. The kind of sound that makes you say “What was That!”
