Thursday, May 26, dawned perfect. A decent rain had burst our heat bubble and cleared out ozone warnings. It was 70 degrees, sunny, blue sky, and yes, time to take advantage again of my Texas State Park retirement pass. Destination - Cleburne State Park. One hour drive.
Spring fed Cedar Lake was fairly clear.
We drove, stopped, hiked some little trails, and kept coming back to the lake
Love a cactus bloom on the trail. It's near the end of the season for that.
Splendid time walking and certainly gave Ray's new knee a challenge. It was up to the task.
Go find your nearest state park - it's worth a trip. Restrooms are clean. Paths are easy enough to figure out on the map. Fresh air, my friends. Clears the head.
Part 2 of our adventure on Wednesday.
Hi Joanne - certainly looks a delightful place to visit - quiet too ... and as you say worth a visit - somewhat costly for me! Glad Ray's knee past muster .... Cheers Hilary
ReplyDeletevery worthwhile, and yes, Ray's making great progress.
DeleteAw, the tranquility. Thank you, Joanne.
ReplyDeleteIt was quiet. I bet with school out here, it's a lot busier now
