Vacation time in The Hill Country

We headed to a very ,very nice resort in Hill Country for our mini vacation time. I wanted to visit the hill country area in Texas since I got here. The pics I ve seen were just fav and i wasnt dissapointed at all !! The geography is just so nice, rolling hills,green all over, the sky was brighter and bluer than ever .The Lake called PK , is one of the most beautiful i ve ever seen..... the water is crystal clear, and there are plenty trees on the shore. The lake is full of cattails in some areas...very nice.The view from my room , was amazing.... perfect!
Anyway, we got to the resort, and the people were so friendly . My room had a fireplace ! I love rooms with fireplace. It feels so cozy and protected for me.. so that put me in a very good mood.
We made reservations for the spa. and after unpacking there s exactly where we spent the next 4 hours.
After a very southern meal ( chicken fried steak-my favourite and mark s rib eye )in the resort resto overviewing the lake, we went to downtown to visit the antique stores...lovely... !!! When we came back to the hotel we run into deer, domestic deers eating pears and apples on the side of the road.I couldnt believe it.!! I am so used to wild deer runnig from you when they see you . It was just like a tale.. like BAMBI !!
The next day Markus arranged a FISHING EXCURSION. We got up at 4 in the morning and fished for over 6 hours. We fished 20 and had some much fun hearing to differents stories told by our guide. He taught us new techniques and we had a blast !!!
Mark also played golf... we participated in power walks.... and so much more.... it was so nice, so relaxing, so fun . A lot of memories !!!!
We ended today with more spa !! in the Four Seasons. Here are some pics that I would love to share with all of you !!

Oh how absolutely wonderful! I'm glad you got some time away from work and that you and Mark went to such a beautiful part of Texas. I luv luv luv (!) fireplaces in rooms. If I could, I would spoil myself with a fireplace in every room of my house!
