Down by the river....


If you said, "Neil Young, 1969," you must be as old as I am, and you get 200 bonus points for living this long.

We enjoy wandering around the Riverwalk area...




We started our walk through the area around 10:00 am - earliest in the day we've been there.  No crowds.  Eerily unpopulated.  In the boat below...


It isn't empty - the driver is doing the narration for that one guy onboard.  New boats here, by the way - electric propulsion instead of outboards.  Rounded edges with a rub rail that matches up to all the other new boats.  I spoke with a lady driving one of the boats: she had no idea what the propeller situation was, but she said they are much easier to drive.


We did some shopping, sight-seeing, had lunch at Margaritaville, then back to the coach to relax before heading out again for the evening... a Tommy Emmanuel concert.  If you aren't familiar with him, do a search and watch a few videos; this guy is an amazing guitarist.

Thanks, Robert. Nice to hear from you. LOL - I often joke about "living in a van down by the river" when we're traveling in our motorhome! There's another SNL reference in the next post about the Tommy Emmanuel concert.
