I think having a blog in the summertime entices you to hang out at a local joint with air conditioning, free wireless, and frozen beverages.

Underwater
Today was a swim day. I took my camera along since I had the pool to myself for most of the time. I liked how the filtered sun beams threw shadows along the bottom of the pool. I tried to hold my breath for as long as possible and float in the silence of the underwater world.
Blue Baker
What you see here is the stone oven that baked my Pesto Pizza. It included pesto sauce, mozzarella, chicken, fresh basil, and Parmesan. The Blue Baker seems like a nice relaxed spot to grab some grub, make use of the free Wi-Fi, and chill out for a bit. Beware, you may soon see my dusty self hanging out here after a long, hot hiking session in the area.
Buc-ee’s IV
By now you know the drill. Drive through New Braunfels, stop in at Buc-ee’s. Get some gas. Take random photos. Get snack foods and a beverage. Continue driving on I35…
Sunset from the Roof
Simply amazing! 🙂
Hotel Emma
This was a pleasant surprise! Hotel Emma is soon to be completed, and it looks to be a wonderful place to stay. Maybe someday…
Pearl Brewery
This was my destination for the afternoon. A place where I could explore a little bit, take some photos, duck in and out of the coffee shop for a cool drink and some air conditioning, chase butterflies, and learn a little bit about the history of the Pearl Brewery.
River Taxi
After stuffing my face with a huge lunch, I decided to take a river taxi up the San Antonio River to the last stop at the Pearl Brewery. It was a lovely trip! If you go, expect to see tourists, other barges, bridges, plants, trees, flowers, ducks, turtles, a lock which raises your boat to the upper river level, waterfalls, and plenty of sunshine! If you are feeling energetic, you can even step out along the way and go for a hike along the Riverwalk path.
Fogo de Cḥo РSan Antonio
I first learned about Fogo de Chão in March, and have been wanting to return since then. It is a little bit expensive, but the trick is to go for lunch so you don’t get hit with a killer bill. I skipped the Hotel breakfast, worked up a good appetite, and attacked. It was awesome. Meats everywhere. Check out the website if you have one in your area or come visit the one in Austin or San Antonio.
