Our third day on the road with the Budget Rent a Truck was hard on tired bottoms from all the bouncing. We hung in there and got to see the beginnings of spring south of Fort Worth. The grass along the roadside was greening up, trees were beginning to leaf out, and best of all was the Texas Blue Bonnet flowers along the roadside. You see these beautiful flowers and have to think of Lady Bird Johnson and her legacy to beautify this country's roadside by planting wild flowers. It has been so dry this year that we thought there would be no Blue Bonnets but there they were for all passers by to enjoy. In no time we drove through Austin and then left I 35 to drive through the Texas Hill Country visiting Johnson city, Fredericksburg and finally home in Kerrville.
We unpacked a few clothes from the back of the truck and had a bite to eat with Byron at Mamacita's Restaurant and then decided to walk the park. It took over an hour and a half, as we had to stop and visit with our friends. What a warm welcome home we were given! No wonder we like this place! Happy travels.
