Bubba's Country Store

With a name like Bubba's Country Store, Lil Dude Troll just had to stop. Ended up with a ham 'n cheese sandwich (with a big dill pickle slice), chips & a coke for lunch. It wasn't haute cuisine, but the ingredients were fresh and it was actually a pretty good sandwich. What else would you expect from a store named Bubba's?

In the Texas Hill Country

Yep, that's the capitol building.

The capitol building grounds are very nice & well kept.
Loved Austin!

Salt Lick Bar-B-Q

No self-respecting Troll could be in Austin, Texas and not take a trip to the town of Driftwood to eat at Salt Lick Bar-B-Q. If it's good enough for Sandra Bullock, Lee Ann Womack, Willie Nelson, Ron White and Bum Philips, then it's good enough for the Troll family!

Front entrance to the Salt Lick grounds

Cactus Boot at the back entrance

Fountain in back

Salt Lick adult beverages

Tree-shaded outside picnic area - with horseshoes pit

A gastronomical delight - more than enough for a hungry Troll!

Splash on a little Texas hot sauce - Warning! Only for
Texans and the very foolish!

Fast, friendly, wonderful service. Thank you, Marisol!
Ride 'em, Cowboy Troll!

Scrap Booking

Lil Dude Troll has gotten into Scrappin' lately. Why would he do that, you may ask. Cause that's where the girls are!

Tools of the trade.

He's not very good at scrappin'.

He's not even sure what to do with all of the stuff.

But he's pretty good at getting a girlfriend.

Or two.
Such a naughty Troll!
