Our time at Brushy Creek has come to an end. We took our final walk around the campground and saw all the new weekend campers, including a large church group and several boaters. Then we were off to Tyler and new adventures. We are staying at 5 Star RV Park, just south of I-20. It's pretty basic: full hookups and a place to park. Unfortunately it's also been a bit noisy and the pet owners don't necessarily clean up after their dogs.
Around 5:00 p.m. we drove over to Dick and Carol's. It was great to see them again, as always.
They took us out to dinner at Bernard's Mediterranean Restaurant for my birthday. Bernard's is an upscale place featuring Greek and French cuisine. Ken and I shared a pasta dish, Ravioli St. Tropez (cheese ravioli, served in a sun dried tomato with baby shrimp and crab meat). It was delicious, and so was the fresh hot bread and olive tapenade.
The ambience and service were quite good. Here you can see the black napkin the server swooped in to trade for Ken's white one, to avoid the possibility of lint!
After dinner we had a chance to play Rummikub, which Carol had received as a 70th birthday gift. Dick won the first round, and Ken won the second.
I came prepared to spend the night, because I wanted to go to the Saturday morning garage sales with Carol. She always heads out early, so that gave Ken the chance to sleep in and join us later.
