A Treehouse

March 31/2018  Weather sunny, 80's, night 60.  Warm weather for the next week.    On our way we were passed by a pack of racers!  

Around the corner ahead was a Sherriff.... Busted!

There is the best pie in Utopia at the Lost Maple Cafe and we invited our friends Jim and Paulette to meet us there.   Well that didn't quite work out as we found out when we pulled up and it was very quiet.  Hmmm.  Oh oh.... They are closed today; their daughter was getting married.  Ok.  So looking down the street we see lots of cars parked at the LunchBox.  Sounds good to us; and it was.    After we chatted we found out there was a Pete Nelson treehouse past Utopia at Laurel Tree Restaurant.  Cool  !!!  We just watched his show the other day, when he went to visit the fellow in France.

We could still not satisfy our need for pie as the restaurant is prebooked; reservation only.  The dining treehouse is in the back of the property and within view so we snapped a couple of pics without disturbing the diners.

In a couple of weeks the poppy fields out front will be in full bloom; won't that be a magnificent view?   Ahh.   After saying our goodbyes to our Canadian friends,  Billy decided he was still in search of pie.  On our way back to Kerrville we made a detour into Medina to the Apple Store..... and pie with icecream. Everything is apple here.  Apple coffee, pie, strudel, icecream, jams, cookies.  I think you get the idea.
