I walked a portion of a new hike and bike path today. It is called Brushy Creek Trail and it began for me where it intersects A. W. Grimes Blvd. The path is wide and paved as you head East from the Rabb House or Play for All Abilities Park, and there are some shady trees along the way.
These were the scenes on both sides of me as I crossed the footpath on the San Gabriel River while walking in Georgetown this evening. The weather was perfect for a walk.
I had an event in downtown Austin again today, so afterwards I went for a long walk on the relatively new Boardwalk Trail . These photos are mostly from the East side of the trail (East of I-35). As you can tell, it is still cloudy and a bit rainy in Austin.
I tested out a new App today while walking in Georgetown. It is called RunKeeper , and you can use it to track your exercise. In case you find a deep desire to stalk me, I am usually walking this path in Georgetown one, two, three, or four times a week. Just look for the big, sweaty dude. 🙂
I tried out a new hiking trail this evening, and I struck Texas photography Gold (or at least Silver – I’ll let you decide). Butterflies, roses, windmills, sunsets and more! What a nice evening full of surprises. 🙂
This is what you find at the far end of the trails at Berry Springs Park and Preserve in Georgetown. Pretty cool, huh?
I saw tons of cool stuff while walking at sunset today at Berry Creek Park and Preserve. The hiking trails have both beauty and danger, so beware! I’m not sure what kind of snake that was on the side of the trail, but lucky for me he had a full belly (check the bulge in the picture) and was too lethargic to be bothered with humans. He totally caught me by surprise! I took a quick photo and moved on.
I found a new spot in Georgetown for walking. It is called Berry Springs Park and Preserve and it is located just north of town where the toll road meets I35. Below is a photo of the trail map to give you an idea of how the park is laid out.
