Cactus Grill

Glen Rose, Texas

Weather: low 41 degrees, high 56 degrees, cloudy skies, windy

The walk this morning was rather brisk with the wind blowing about 15 miles per hour. Once I got back to the RV, I didn't go out much until a little after lunch because it was so cold, when I adjusted the drain hose for the waste water tanks so it wouldn't have a low spot in it.

In the afternoon, I watched Florida scrimmage against The Citadel in college football. The Gators won 70 to 19, and it wasn't much of a game. Next week should be a better game when the Gators play Florida State.

The highlight of the day came when Jerry and Joyce Brown, the owners of Midway Pines RV Park where we are staying, invited us to go the Cactus Grill in Meridian for dinner. We didn't even know about this restaurant, but what a surprise. The Cactus Grill is located in beautiful downtown Meridian, and has seating for about 35 people. From the outside, it is not much to see, but the inside is decorated nicely with the Texas touch we like so much. And then the food. Ohhhh! It is so good.

I had the rib eye steak, and it was cooked perfectly. Carolyn had the Chicken Piccata, and she said it was very good. Jerry and Joyce had the filet mignon, and they said their food was also good. None of us had room for dessert. When we walked out of the restaurant, we were all ready to go home and take a nap.

A slow day for us, but it ended nicely.

More later, be safe.
