May 13, 2014 (22nd Day)

Very cloudy and gloomy when we got up at 8.

We, along with Christy, went out for breakfast at Torchy's.  Got breakfast burritos. Very very good!

After we finished our breakfast we toured the Texas School for the Deaf that is not far from Torchy's.

Christy took us to visit the Pfluger pedestrian bridge. A great place to see the skyline.

Visited the Hope Outdoor Gallery, very funky, weird and interesting!  This is where graffitti artists are allowed to do their work without getting arrested! Christy walked up to the top of it. Brave soul!

Went to Cathedral of Junk (Roadside America), but found out that an appointment is needed before you can go in, so Erwin called, but the answering messages said too many calls and they are not able to answer every one.  We were very disappointed.  Christy said they have added more junk to the collection, now there is a 2nd story to the cathedral since the last time she was there 2 years ago. 

I dare you to walk through the Cathedral of Junk

Now on way to Pennybacker Bridge.  Found that new no parking zone signs were posted on each side of 360. So, Christy went up to the top of the hill to allow us to get a good view of Austin skyline and million dollar homes. Then went back to 360, then to the boat ramp and parked. Erwin did not want to walk up to the bridge, so Christy and I went up. Found out the sidewalk is on the other side of the bridge and it was difficult to cross the road to the sidewalk. It started to drizzle, so we went back to the parking lot.  Under the bridge there are thousands of barnswallow nests.  Lots of barnswallows buzzing around.

Christy and CJ wanted Erwin to fix goulash for supper so we stopped at HEB grocery store to get some items.

When we got back to Christy's house Edith was so so tired that she took a nap and Christy took a pic of me and posted it on Instagram! Have to watch out for her when you are not looking!

While Edith was napping Erwin showed CJ step by step on how to fix goulash.  This time he added Italian sausage and mixed it with ground beef.  They loved the dish. There was enough left over for a meal..

After supper Christy went out for a walk so we caught up on messages and emails.
When Christy got back she showed Edith more lightroom tips.
