Tuesday in the Hill Country, Part 1

Where the heck is the YMCA?!? Many of you know that since Max and I retired, we've become gym rats. We end up at our local Y most every day. So now that we are settled here in Kerrville, I looked up their local Y -- and found two locations. One of them was listed very close to the RV park. Alright! So we set off, with google maps as our guide. We drive right to the location and.... Nothing. No Y. We drove all around where the dot on the interactive map showed the Y. Heck I could see our little dot on the map circling the location. But nothing. Well crap.

So we decided to go to the other listed location, clear across town. Granted, in a town of about 22000 people, "clear across town" is only about 5 miles. Grin. We get to that location, again using interactive google maps, and again -- nothing. Seriously?!?!

So we pull into a grade school that showed the same street address. I went in and visited with the lady in the office (what a nice person she was!). And she said, oh yes, the Y is in a little building behind the school.

So we traipse thru the grade school (I was amazed how quiet it was in there!) and to the Y. Only to find out from the nice lady there that the Y doesn't have in gym facilities in this area. Only after school programs. Argh! Go figure.

THEN we decide that we will go back and try the resort "gym". Yeah right. It is 4 antiquated pieces of equipment stashed in the corner of the pool building. Max tried the treadmill, the bicycle, and the weight machine.... And said, um, nevermid, let's go do something else.

It worked out okay though. We went back, got the girls, and went for a beautiful walk along the Guadalupe River (our rv park sits next to the river). Beautiful view, eh?

More on Tuesday in the Hill Country later today......

Cheers!
