Today I'm going to do something I've not done in awhile. As in drive up to Rockledge Park on Lake Grapevine and go on hike, then swim, then have a picnic. I used go up to Rockledge all the time, but it somehow seemed foolish to waste gas. But then this morning I realized I'm spending way less on gas than I did when it cost $1.50 a gallon, due to driving way less.
On the way to Lake Grapevine I'm going to another place I've not gone in a long time, that being Sprouts. Sprouts is my favorite grocery store. This week they've got seedless Texas-grown watermelons for only $1.99. Last week I discovered I can make watermelon juice with my Vita-Mix. Mixed with lemonade, the watermelon juice is a very very good thing.
Lake Grapevine's waves can get almost ocean-size in a good wind. I always see big clam shells on the beach at this lake. I did not know clams grew in freshwater lakes. There also are a lot of seagulls. I can almost pretend I'm at a Washington saltwater beach when I'm at Lake Grapevine. In a week I'll be at the real thing. A Washington saltwater beach, I mean.
I'm going to take video today at Lake Grapevine, so be looking for that on a blog soon. Probably later today.
