Texas, green grass, tall trees and water!

After a couple days of driving we arrived at our next stop, Kerrville, Texas. We chose this place due to the fact it is centrally located to some of the sites we wanted to see. Our park is named By The River Rv Park, and is located on the banks of the Guadalupe River. This area of Texas we are in is called the “Hill Country” and is really quite beautiful. The area has nice tall trees, green grass and water, something Cindy and I have missed seeing the past few months.

We went to a town called Fredericksburg which is an old German Town. The town is a shopping haven for those of you that like antiques. Store after store of antiques and gifts to buy, and plenty of food along the way. We actually went over there to see some of the wildflower fields but they were not in full bloom yet, so we’ll try it in a week or two.

We have been keeping busy taking some day trips throughout the area and enjoying the countryside. We have also had our days of just doing nothing but sitting by the river, reading and watching wildlife. We did take our bikes out to a city park with trails and we found out just how out of shape we really are. But on the positive side we at least attempted to do some riding and actually enjoyed the day (the aches and pains came the next day).

Our plans are to be here for a few more weeks and we want to visit San Antonio, LBJ Ranch, Corpus Christi , Austin and some other scenic drives. After that we will be heading to Estes Park and settle into the wonderful Rockies and prepare for the summer. Until next time consider this “Happiness will never come to those who fail to appreciate what they already have”.
