Greetings from Alpine


Hello from Alpine, Texas.  I am stealing someones internet so I will make this fast.  We are still settling in but everything is going well for us!  Troy started his new job and we have made a couple of friends!  The boys are liking Alpine,they love the fact there are deer are EVERYWHERE here.  We have had them at our driveway!  You can drive through the mountian communities and see herds of  them in yards.   We have found the park which is not too far from the house and the elementary school is just down the road as well.  The local "walmart" here is Alco.  Just a smaller version of the original Walmart stores.  We have two grocery stores not far from the house, and Sol Ross University is close as well. I guess you can say everything is close to the house, LOL.  They say Midland is the place to do MAJOR shopping.  Walmart and Sams are next to each other, so a lot of locals stock up when they make the journey.  We are planning on going to Fort Davis this weekend and hike a few trails.  Troy's boss lives there and I think we are suppose to stop by and see them as well.  They came by the other night and are very nice,  turns out they are not much older than Troy and I. 
Here are a couple of pics that I have taken of the deer and mountains....... more later.
