I met some more friendly fish while hiking a different section of Bull Creek this afternoon. The scenery along this creek hike is beautiful. And as a bonus, if you get too hot, just immerse yourself in the nice, clear water to cool yourself off in the Texas Summer heat.
Today’s hot hike was launched from Bull Creek District Park in weather beyond 100 degrees Farenheit. I walked a short way along the Inga VanNynatten Memorial Trail, then plunged into Bull Creek and took it as far as the super hot day would allow. Along the way there were plenty of people and their dogs enjoying the cool creek water.
Free car washes in Pflugerville until August 2nd! Yes, there is a new car wash in town and it is called The Car Wash Barn. They have just opened and are offering free car washes for a few more days. Check it out, have some fun going through the barn, and leave with a shiny car and a smile on your face. 🙂
I received this one dollar silver certificate for change. The following happened in 1957.
What you have here is your basic JLG Model 660SJ. It has a horizontal outreach of 57 feet, a platform height of 67 feet, and a vertical jib rotation of 130 degrees. Pretty impressive, huh?
One of the best parts of summer around here is to float one of our beautiful rivers. I returned to the San Marcos River and rented my tube from Lions Club Tube Rental and River Shuttle Service. This trip is about an hour long float and ends at a set of rapids. Super fun!
Zedler Mill is a historic mill in Luling, Texas. There are swimming holes, parks, and lots of photo opportunities. It lies on the shore of the San Marcos River and can be enjoyed by all.
I traveled through New Braunfels today and made a pit stop at Buc-ee’s for some gas and a Dr. Pepper Slushee. I also found it necessary to squish a shiny penny. 🙂
Just beneath the water tower in Gruene and under the blazing Texas Summer sun, you will find one of my favorite restaurants in the area. The Gristmill restaurant overlooks the Guadalupe River and serves up typical Texas favorites like the Chicken Fried Chicken and Mashed Potatoes that I had for lunch. It was great!
