It was our usual busy weekend! The Devine Canines were here, we held our B-Fit class, Game Group had a riveting game of Sorry, then moved on to Skipbo, Mike N. came to perform, and so much more! Music is a big thing here, and Linda and May enjoyed the songs from Smokey Robinson, Elvis, John Denver, etc. Bob and Marie got in on the fun with some sing-alongs. Everyone had a great time. So much to choose from, so much to do!

We took off today to look for fall... Texas is running more than a little late for this season, but we did find a very unique lunch spot. What looks a lot like "the middle of nowhere" is Hays General Store. This is NOT a store, it is an open air restaurant, and it was packed! We couldn't help but wonder where all these people came from on a Wednesday at lunchtime, but there they were! The food was unbelievable, and the service was even better. We highly recommend this strange but wonderful place. You will have to google how to get there, because we're not exactly sure. Marie Ann and Margaret and Pat enjoyed everything about it. Mary was impressed with how extensive and diverse the menu was. It was another great day with friends!

After four years of hosting our Trick or Treat Event, it is so flattering that our neighborhood families have made it their tradition for our community to be their first stop of the night. Our new resident, Maryanne, was even arrested by the "Candy Police"! Nancy and Judy just loved seeing all the costumes, and it was like watching a parade come towards you as they made their way down the halls. This was Margaret's third time greeting trick or treaters, and she gets such a kick out of it. This year was Ms. May's first time. She was thrilled at all the kids and their costumes. We put up the photo backdrop again for all those family photos. Dorothy and Nancy helped to be sure everything was perfectly placed, then posed for their pictures to be sure it was perfect for our guests.

Thank you to all the neighbors who came out; we loved sharing your Halloween with you. See you next year!!
