My Private Cottage on a Hill
September 2nd, 2010Several weeks ago my wife and I took a vacation down to the hill country of Texas. We split our time between two places and did a lot of fun things (some of which almost killed us). I STILL have photos I haven’t finished editing, but I am going to start posting those that I have made it through since its already been three weeks.
This is the first cabin we stayed in was just a few minutes outside of Wimberley, TX. There are actually three small cottages at Canyon Sunrise and you can’t see one from the other. Yep, total privacy. Each one has its own kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom, just like an apartment. Each also has it’s own hot tub on the back porch and it’s own private swimming pool. Yep, private pool…in the woods…fun. That’s all I’ll say about that.
As you can see from the fridge space, there isn’t just a whole lot of room for storage, but mix in an ice chest fro drinks and you’re good. We went to the store in Wimberley and picked up some groceries to minimize our need to travel into town to eat/waste money on buying dinner out. It was fantastic. We used this cabin as a place to relax and do nothing part of the time, and as a base for our explorations into surrounding areas that you’ll see in future posts (so subscribe to my feed NOW!).

The wife’s flight was supposed to land 30 minutes ago. Except it appears Dallas weather doesn’t want to cooperate. Check out the pictures. The first one was about 8:00pm, the second was about 9:10pm. This storm had better move on out now!
