Pedernales Falls State Park.
About an hour west of Austin, out into the Texas Hill Country. Mid-60s, partly cloudy, a light breeze. Perfect.
Pedernales Falls State Park
Austin, Texas
We didn’t plan to go to Austin.
We’d been in Galveston, happy enough, and tried to extend our stay. That didn’t work out. So we decided to spend time in Austin. It seemed like a good place to land on our way to visit family in Tulsa.
We found a reasonable place and did the 4 hour drive north.
Galveston, Texas
Galveston in January.
Grey skies, wide beaches, and not a crowd in sight.
The Ferry to Galveston
We didn’t just drive to Galveston.
We took the ferry.
Bay St. Louis, Mississippi — Slow Days on the Gulf
We didn’t come to Bay St. Louis to see the sights.
We came to rest. And the town was perfectly fine with that.
