WELCOME

Welcome. The Two Leos (My Trusty Companion and I) are glad you stopped by. I have created this site to document and share our adventures as we travel around the United States. In 2011, these travels were limited to weekend outings and vacations. We used these to explore areas which will be visited more extensively in the future. Beginning in 2012, we expanded our travels as we transition to the full-time RV lifestyle. Check back from time to time to see our wanderings.

Spring in the Hill Country

This Friday will be the first of several trips I have planned for 2011. I'll be headed to San Antonio, the Texas Hill Country and Austin. The Trusty Companion will have to stay behind for this trip, because it involves activities the aren't pet friendly. I wish we could take a more European attitude toward dogs, where well mannered friends like Leo would be welcome in most establishments. But, since he can't attend conventions or join me in most restaurants, he'll be happier at home.

The first stop on this round will be a reunion of the 6th Battalion 11th Artillery, with which I served in Vietnam. This will be Friday, Saturday and Sunday in San Antonio. Then I plan to spend the next few days on the Bluebonnet Trail in the Texas Hill Country, with camera in hand. Weather permitting, I'd also like to get in a little fly fishing on the Guadalupe. Then I'll wrap up the week at the Old Settler's Music Festival in Austin. It should be a relaxing week.

Pappy
