Still Winging It

I am still winging it with the peacock.  There are about fifteen more rows to the bottom of the page, so I've been making progress...

Panera Again

 Driving from Tennessee to Texas, we stopped in Alabama for lunch at Panera.  This time, it wasn't nearly as good as usual.  Who ever heard of orange colored mushroom soup?  It didn't taste very good, either.  Andreas' bread bowl was meh.  My salad, at least, was decent.

Inland Naval Museum

 Evidently, Admiral Nimitz was born and raised in Fredericksburg, Texas.  Because of this, there's a museum!  It's big and one part of it is a memorial to Nimitz himself.  The larger part is a museum of the Pacific War.  I only took two photos with my camera.  Andreas, when he processes them, has more.

Getting Grassy

Getting some grass in now.  Lots of scotch stitches.

Pure Genius

 Everyone loves slushies, but what about a coke slushy that's alcoholic?  As in with Jack Daniels in it?  That's what Pappas Burgers has come up with with their Jack Frost.  It's absolutely wonderful and even better in the summer.

The food is huge and good, too.  Their "small" burger is a third of a pound - before toppings and bun.  The burgers are cooked  to order and there's a wide selection.  They will make them chicken or veggie burgers, too.  I don't do fries, but Andreas and Mom loved the chili cheese fries.  The onion rings, I can attest, are very good - but not as good as Hut's in Austin.




Museum Architecture

 From these interior shots you can tell the building was constructed in the nineteenth century.  It's got that massive Victorian feel to it.  The bones of the building are beautiful, as are the murals and small motifs scattered throughout.  Even if you don't enjoy natural history, you can enjoy beauty at the Austrian National Natural History Museum.







Another Outline

Outlining one more house, the last before the middle hall.  Slowly getting all the way around.
