- cowboy breakfast, two sunny eggs, bacon, confit pork, borracho beans, tomato, roasted jalapeño, cilantro butter
Vegan plant protein can be substituted, and they offer any drink on the planet
So hop on, and we’ll be off.
Looks like a big turnout.
A favorite stop.
Always time for Ice cream.
Water and shave ice.
Face and body decorating.
Baskets for the easter egg grab.
The new Park& Rec digital billboard. Has the schedule for the various age group egg hunts.
A volunteer handing out candy. (Don’t ask)
The Easter Bunny.
Bubbles.
Petting zoo. Turtle, bunnies, chicken, guinea pig, and T-Rex.
The field for the 9 and 10-year-olds has been littered with 3000 eggs. Inside some of the eggs are prize notifications.
And there they go. Within three minutes, there was not an egg left.
Here’s where the prizes are handed out.
Chalk art competition underway.
Thank you, Lakeway Parks and Rec, for a successful event.
Now relax in the shade and enjoy the food and music.
Wonderful! Thank you 😊

Looks like a grand day for a fun event. I’m struck by the absence of parents during the egg hunt though. Sadly, when Domer was a child, the parents took over at one of our egg hunts, snatching eggs from little kids and dropping them into their own kids’ baskets. Made for many a tear … and some choice words from other parents. Domer refused to attend thereafter. Happy Sunday, John!

I love all of these, and like how you rerun the bus that looks like any minute it will zoom off the page. Easter is a happy time since it represents a new season when you shake all its religion off, and I think that’s okay being the lapsed Catholic that I am. Thanks for all the trouble you take to amuse and delight. 🙂
