What a delightful weekend I’m going to share with you!   The 3rd Annual Austin Area Shoebox Swap was held in Georgetown, TX this weekend.  Our venue was the Lone Star Retreat Center, and we enjoyed the facilities and food oh so very much!  If you’re looking for a retreat spot for your family reunion, group [...]
