The topics of our conversation ranged from wardrobe
mistakes, trail riding on gaseous horses, tricked-out car conversions made on
an old Cadillac and VWs, Miles of Chocolate, vacuuming up Lady Bugs and
relocating them outside of the house, H-E-B's "That Green Sauce,"
wild feral hogs, Miles of Chocolate, cows, bulls and kayaking, etc., but the
most interesting subject was about this new Lobo Beer, brewed at the Pedernales
Brewing Company, in Fredericksburg, Texas, that Debbie and Craig are involved
in.
"You've got to make a beer float using the Lobo Negro
and vanilla ice cream!" Denise said. "It is so delicious and to me it
tastes like coffee."
"I think it tastes more like chocolate," Debbie
chimed in, "and The Cowboy Steak House is serving the beer and the floats." And by the time everyone had convinced us to try it, as soon as
possible, lunch was over and we were standing outside next to Les &
Denise's car, with the back hatch up, accepting two complimentary six-packs of
Lobo Beer and Lobo Negro Beer.
After all of us had hugged and adios-ed Debbie & Craig
and they had taken off to go vote early, they told us that they wanted to adopt
our Cosmo Topper, because he had truly stolen Denise's heart, last Saturday
when they were out here! "For the past two nights I haven't been able to
sleep, because I can't quit thinking about him," Denise said. So, then we
made plans for them to come out around 3:30 today, so we could run a few
errands, like stopping by H-E-B to pick up some of Blue Bell's Homemade Vanilla
ice cream, before returning to the ranch.
When Les & Denise arrived at the rescue ranch, we
quickly hugged each other and then we drove down to Cosmo's and Lulu's pen,
because Denise couldn't wait to see her precious Cosmo Topper. And when we
arrived at his and Lulu's pen, Cosmo lit up like a Christmas tree the second he
saw it was Denise. "I think he already knows what's going on," I
said, as Mr. Topper happily ran to the fence trying to get to Denise. And here
is a picture I took of Cosmo with his new fantastic, forever family that he is so lucky to have.
After thanking them for adopting Cosmo from us, we hugged and adios-ed each other and then they drove away with one extremely happy dog. Then Kermit took us up to The Cabin, so we could make the Lobo Negro float using Blue Bell's Homemade Vanilla ice cream.
Since it was a little too early for happy hour we decided to just split one Lobo Negro beer for our floats. And guess what? It was delicious and we couldn't believe it.
Lobo Beer is new to the market, but you can buy it at The Main Liquor stores, in Kerrville and at The Grape Juice on Water Street and the Cowboy Steak House. And get this—the motto for the Lobo Beer is, "Leader of the Pack!" And they certainly got that right.
Y'all have a great evening!
