| David's Birthday/2011 Brunch Under the Oaks |
Thanks for
Coming Out!
Thanks again to all our intrepid friends who braved the wilds and
wild weather of the San Antonio Valley to help us celebrate our 5th annual Brunch Under the Oaks and David's belated birthday
party.
We had sun and a bit of rain, but thankfully no wind. The oak flagging was a great success, we think all
the baskets were located and flagged. Thanks again for making it such a special day. Check out the pictures!

Water Progress
The tank is full and the water lines to the barn area are in and running. We have not only stub-ups but working
faucets. Armand has been using them for working on the ring and paddock areas. He's brought the paddocks out and we hope
to have them up by later this winter or early spring.
Past years holiday greetings and newsletters.

Oak Restoration
Project Year 3 We had about 25 sprouts survive the second summer, but a huge surprise this fall was that
some of the acorns we though had not sprouted had decided to give it a go after all. We have a number of new trees still down
below the level of the grow tubes. Another big surprise is that some of the trees that got eaten have also decided they aren't
giving up yet. They may be shorter but they're growing all the same. Some are practically oak bushes.
See both the water line progress and oaks tall and small here.
