We danced C-1 tonight at Texas Trails again, but this time the caller was Joe Saltel. We saw lots more of our Winter Texan friends that we haven't seen since last spring. Some of the folks haven't had a chance to dance all summer, and everyone needs a bit more practice, but we had lots of fun.
One thing we enjoy about Texas Trails is the display in the hallway of the arts and crafts produced by the residents. These folks are really talented! This week the woodcarvings are of Santas carved out of tree bark.
We stopped at the big HEB store at 10th and Trenton on the way home to pick up some last minute things for the Thanksgiving celebration tomorrow. We weren't the only ones doing some last minute grocery shopping. The parking lot was nearly full, even though it was 9:30 p.m., and the store was packed with shoppers.
I Googled lots of sweet potato recipes today and decided to go with a traditional sweet potato casserole with pecan streusel topping, always a favorite. We'll be up in the morning, cutting fruits and veggies and preparing everything for the feast.
Earlier today we managed to spend a few minutes looking over possible routes for next summer. We definitely want to visit the south rim of the Grand Canyon. My family went there when I was 14. What a magnificent place!
We also scraped the old non-skid strips off our folding step. They've been in bad condition for some time, and we finally bought some new stripping to replace the disintegrating old stuff. Unfortunately in the process of scraping off the old strips we scraped off part of the paint too, so it looks like we'll be repainting.
