Smithville

Matt has been preaching in Smithville for a couple of weeks while they go through the process of bringing in a new preacher. There isn't much to do IN Smithville, but the area is beautiful and Bastrop, which is quickly growing, is just a few minutes down the road.

The movie Hope Floats (Sandra Bullock and Harry Connick Jr.) was filmed in Smithville, so we drove by the house that was in the movie. I have no idea why the door is not centered... it kind of drives me nuts... but it's still a pretty neat house.

After church we drove into Bastrop and ate at a restaurant downtown that is well known for their breakfast. Those of you who know me well know that I won't turn down a good breakfast!

The new preacher starts up soon, so we probably won't be back in this area for a little while, but we've enjoyed the opportunity to (1) get to know the church in Smithville, and (2) explore the area. :)
