Holiday Trip

Steve and I took a little trip to Enchanted Rock and Fredericksburg after Christmas.  It was so much fun!

Bald Eagle Nest

This doesn’t look like much but a nest….but there is a bald eagle in there!  A couple of wildlife photographers were set up waiting for the eagle to fly.  We could just see his head peaking out.

Enchanted Rock was a fun little hike and the park had it’s own kind of winter-barren beauty.

In Fredericksburg we enjoyed walking Main Street and all the cute shops.  We also spent hours at the Nimitz Museum and the National Museum of the War in the Pacific.  These were top-notch museums and so very interesting.

The town square was beautiful with the nativity, tree and German Christmas pyramid.  This was a fun little getaway for Steve and I.  We would love to visit again in the spring to enjoy the wildflowers.

Back in College Station, we ended 2013 and Steve’s birthday with dinner at Café Eccel and watching the Aggies come-back win against Duke in the Chick-fil-a Bowl.
