A Summer Explorers Day with Sodas Snakes and Creek Adventures
Two boys roam Wimberley country buying soda waters, sharing flavors, and trading treats. They spot a rattlesnake, drag it away, and end the day swimming in Pin Oak Creek while a distant owl calls as dusk falls.

Wimberley Mill Visit Ends With Wasp Nest and Pulled Strings
A child recounts a Sep 1 1972 day at Wimberley Mill near Grandpa’s cotton patch. They find a wasp nest and a roof bullet hole while Berkley and I dodge terrors and dogs. Grandpa scolds, Grannie fusses, and Berkley washes feet before bed. The entry closes with a tongue in cheek moral about preserving a husband and domestic wisdom.
