Sweetheart and I are the parents to 3 of the best kiddos in the world. (At least we think so...)We have a very special son-n-law too! The kiddos (that includes the very special son-n-law) surprised us with a "get away" trip to....the Texas Hill Country! Yes we were excited....We spend a lot of our time working on our place and well....time does get away from us. We have needed to stop and smell the roses...
This is Enchanted Rock, a very large granite rock. A national park all in itself with wild life everywhere.
We did not see or smell any roses...but we did stop...and just look in awe at this amazing rock!
We went and watched the bats emerge out of an old railroad tunnel. This is at a state park....very interesting. The Park Ranger said that we didn't even need to cover our necks....the bats were interested in moths....not our blood! Those dark looking masses (very hard to see) in the sky are bats flying!
This is somewhere near Fredricksburg. Creeks are dammed up to provide a water source to a very dry land!
A quaint little road. There is a vineyard a little further down. What was sheep and goat country is now....wine country. Beautiful vineyards everywhere. And they have wine tastings! No....we didn't! We were having plenty of fun without the bubbly!
I love the view. My toes stayed curled and sometimes I had to shut my eyes. I'm a little anxious riding....on the side of a mountain...even if it is a Texas mountain! (aka a little hill)
Awesome! Mountains just pop up all over!
I was very excited to find out this mountain did not have any pavement on it
We stayed in Fredricksburg in a very sweet Bed and Breakfast. Did we have fun......yes we sure did!
We took the very long way home stopping at every small town to just..check out the area. This great state is filled with the kindest people. The scenery is awesome too! Wildlife as well as cattle still rule in this wonderful place!
Traveling is fun...but there is no place like...home!
From the pasture...our great state of Texas...and my wonderful home....rich blessings to you!
