Medina River Natural Area

Okay - changed my mind last minute.  Instead of going to Lost Maples (which was over 100 miles away) I opted for Medina River Natural Area (which was a little over 50).  Nice little hike, but not any longer or more exerting (is that a word?) than my morning walk).  Again, I was the only one on the trail.  There were a few people fishing though.  I wouldn't make this a destination in itself, but there is the Mission National Historic Park nearby (which Sierra didn't want to go to - old crabby fart) :-)

Looks SO beautiful & a nice place to walk.. All I want is a friend to go on nice hikes with.

Yeah, me too.... I usually hike all by myself.

We need teleport buttons to whisk us off to where the other is for a hike :D

I'll go with you to the Mission National Historic Park with you sometime. I love history. And herstory too! *grins*

Sure - just say when. This whole area we live in is rich in history. Even before I lived here I was fascinated with Texas and its role in American history.

Yep, she's more of a mall and amusement park kind of girl :(

Nice. I really liked the picture of the path between the trees and the tree roots. Gosh, what a nice place to walk.

Talk about memories! When my Dad was stationed at San Antonio and at Austin we went to so many of the places you are going to. I remember fondly many Girl Scout campouts (and family campouts) at Medina (and Caddo, and...). THank you for sharing as at least once a week I am reminded of something happy from my childhood :)

Yay - I'm glad. Plenty more where that came from :-)
