Granbury in the Rain

Oops. No entry here for a week. Sometimes life just gets in the way. Last Wednesday the Puter Ho and I celebrated our third anniversary. Actually we waited until the weekend to celebrate with a couple of nights at a bed & breakfast in Granbury. It's such a short trip from Fort Worth that we can go down on Friday night and stay over until Sunday and feel like we've been away.

We actually got married in Granbury at a B&B and the weather on that day was very similar to this weekend's weather. A bit chilly and a misty rain. Good snuggling weather. Granbury is a lovely little town, but I fear it's charm is fading. The place seems to aspire to be Branson. Ewwwwww. It's experienced remarkable growth. The streets seem more crowded than ever with silvery heads. I don't mind senior citizens. If I'm lucky I'll get to be one too. And I can handle a certain amount of hokiness, but sometimes, altogether, it gets to be a bit much.

Still, it makes for a nice little getaway and I got some Christmas shopping done too.

The only weekend the wife and I spent any time in Granbury was also rainy and cold – it was for her birthday in January I can't remember the name of the B&B we stayed in, but the breakfast was phenomenal.

I was a little disappointed in the "antique" shops there. Most of them were more about crafts. I like old furniture, especially old wooden chairs.
