The Hill Country!

---

350 miles today . Started out at just about sea level and as we entered the Texas hill country our highest elevation was 2031’.Crossed the San JacintoRiver and got just a bit of the Houston rush hour also saw refineries. Near San Antonio, Randolph AFB and trainer jets, flyin’ low. We were also near Lackland AFB and Will remembered “50 years ago” arriving there for basic training.Hot today, in the 90’s but in the evening it cooled right down and felt wonderful – barely any humidity. This really is hill country, just about all we see. Lots of blanket flowers along the side of the road and lots of rock and hard ground. Arrive Johnson Creek Campground at 4:15 – beautiful park just full of pecan trees. Tomorrow is a rest day and visiting with George and Mary.

Wow---you've got it all...the trees, the hills, the river, the deer, the flowers, and even a taste of the Old West! This is just whetting your appetite for more, I'm sure!

"park just full of pecan trees" I'm sure none are as impressive as "Mr. Pecan"

Mr. Pecan
Absolutely NOT! Interesting I mentioned when we checked in about having a lot of pecan trees in GA and I was advised the pecan tree originated in Texas. hummm

Great picts.
It's about time you got into some summer clothing. So good to be following you as you travel, but SHO do miss both of you. Don't forget to return to home in Clayton.
