Meeting Other Bloggers...

I love reading other folks blogs...  all kinds of blogs written by all kinds of folks.  Every now and then we get the opportunity to actually meet in person the writer of blogs I read.  One blog I read is "Our Awesome Travels"...  by George Yates and his wife Suzie.  I think I was first attracted to George's blog because of his photos of the foods he prepares.

When I read the line just below the header of his blog a few days ago, I realized that they were staying in Glen Rose, Tx.  That's about a 15 minute drive from our daughter's house, so I sent an e-mail kinda welcoming them to this area.  George immediately e-mailed back and suggested getting together before they head on to Arizona.

Of Course!

Today was the day!  We had no problem finding their site at the Tres Rios Resort...  they're the ones with the Weber Grill on their picnic table.  Okay... I know, lots of people have one, but since I also read Rick Doyle's blog, I couldn't resist throwing that Weber grill thing in.

Despite the fact that Bill & I have spent quite a bit of time in Glen Rose, I had to admit that we've never gone out to eat here.  No problem...  George had done some research and knew where the restaurants were and what kind of food they served.  (George told us he'd had a restaurant for many years in Ontario, so I bet he can critique all the food places).  We settled on the "Green Pickle"...

Here's George and Suzie standing under the sign....

We all ordered, and while it was a mite greasy...

Those burgers (and chicken) were mighty tasty!

If you can look beyond the burgers, you might notice that the table cloth was totally designed with green pickles.

I think we all agreed we seldom eat beef, but, hey...  we're in Texas....

And, Bill & I both had the green chile cheeseburger...  those green chiles surely killed off any bad stuff.

Yeah...  the Green Pickle was a good choice!

We'd only been a couple of hours eating and talking at the restaurant...  hardly long enough to get acquainted...  so we went for a short drive around the back roads of Glen Rose before heading back to the Tres Rios park.

We love hearing about other RVers lifestyle...  love hearing where they've been and where they plan to go.  It's fun talking about blogging...  both George & I read a lot of the same folks writings.  It's just so interesting to meet up with the face behind the words.

Thank you, George and Suzie for a very pleasant afternoon.  May your travels continue to be safe and full of adventure.  Hope to see you down the road...

That's All For Today!
