Georgetown, Texas
Weather: low 32 degrees, high 60 degrees, light breezes, clear skies
We spent some time today comparing the RVs we have been looking at this past week in an effort to narrow the list down. We think we may have figured out which one is best for us, but have asked for more information from the dealership. We should have the information tomorrow, and if the information is useful, may start bargaining.
One of our window blinds was broken, so we replaced it this afternoon. Even though we are looking at different RVs, we still do what we need to do to keep the current home in good repair. We have no idea how long the search for another RV will take, since the last time we went through something like this, it took a year for us to buy the current one. There is no hurry.
After we repaired the blind, I went to downtown Georgetown to take some pictures of the courthouse area. Georgetown is the county seat of Williamson County, and was settled in 1848. The current courthouse was finished in 1911, and is still being used.
The dome on the courthouse appears to be copper with a statue of Themis, the Greek goddess of divine justice. Renovations to the building were completed in 2007.
The square around the courthouse is one of the nicest I have seen. Many of the early settlers of this area were from eastern Europe, and their impact on the architecture can be seen.
The area seems prosperous, and Del Webb's Sun City is located here. As a result of the weather and the natural beauty, as well as the city's nearness to Austin, the area is considered to be a desirable place for retirees to live. I didn't notice any signs that a recession was happening here. Overall, not a bad place to visit. We're glad we stopped here for a few days.
More later, be safe.
