Howdy. We spent our last visit deep in the heart of Texas. We rode our bikes and talked about trails. We even tried our feet two steppin’ at the local honky-tonk bar. We loved Austin.
Traveling to the Hill Country of Texas was a first for both of us. And it is just like it sounds, hilly. Comprised of karst topography (ancient seabeds of limestone) the landscape is a paradise…
