Saturday. We said more goodbyes to our new Canadian friends Clint and Joan as we left Travelers World today. We wish them safe and happy journeys as they move Eastward along the Gulf to Florida.
We drove on the interstate through San Antonio and struck North towards Austin. As we travelled we could see a change in the countryside. It became drier, with yellow grass, with rolling hills. A number of quarries making cement indicated that the bedrock is limestone, which explains its dry appearance. We stopped for lunch in a strip mall car park and made it to McKinney Falls State Park by mid-afternoon. A short cruise around the park found us in a very nice campsite (#44) with about 50 yards of woodland either side before the neighbours could be seen.
NO BURNBAN!!!! We set up the trailer and immediately started a campfire, as we did not really want to sit out late.
NO MOSQUITOES!!!!!! Pleasant evening as it was too cold for mosquitoes, but only moderately chilly, nothing that a sweatshirt couldn’t take care of.
We sat round the fire watching the sunset through the trees.
Tomorrow we intend to do some food shopping and perhaps a quick tour of Austin.
