For the last couple
of years, we’ve headed to our cabin in Leakey during the longer Memorial Day
weekend as a way to celebrate our anniversary a week late. Our plans to go this
weekend stopped dead with the weather report for an entire hunk of Texas—HEAT ADVISORY!
Heading into the
hills with the goal of hiking, weed-eating the overgrown grassy areas
surrounding the small building, and collecting rocks and shoveling gravel to
bring back home for landscaping doesn’t appeal to me at all with temperatures
sweltering between 108°-111°.
In 2022, a severe
hail storm battered our cabin during this same weekend! We “saved” our Bronco
with every cushion and quilt in the building. We’d never experienced such a
severe storm in Leakey in May.
So for today, we’ll spend inside on Arrakis, binging on both parts of Dune.
