• Heat wave & questionable water!

    June 5, 2022 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 90 °F

    Well, the Highland Lakes aren’t really standing up to their reputation (“clear, blue water”). Canyon Lake was gorgeous, but too windy. Now that we are on the chain of Highland Lakes, the water is murky and quite choppy. We drove all around Lyndon B. Johnson Lake, Marble Falls Lake and sections of the Llano River. None of the areas with public access are nice enough for us to want to get on the water.
    We had lunch in Kingsland and the café that I picked out just so happens to be the original house from the Texas chainsaw massacre. Funny!
    When we arrived at our Harvest Host location it was a very nice, grassy area. The deer have been in the yard and all around the neighborhood. Very nice to watch in our air-conditioned van! 101° Today and will be rising all week.
    We aren’t sure where we’re going from here!
    ** Last pic: everything is bigger in Texas. I put the rubber ducky up against the window for a size reference. It was even bigger than it looks in the pic!!!
