As promised, more Cleburne State Park from May 26th. You can see it's a gorgeous day. And there's Ray still ready to trudge along. We are headed up to the CCC Spillway. Alas, no water was showing off in waterfalls. Texas has just been too dry.
But the work of the Civilian Conservation Corp back in the 1930s was superb.
You think of Texas as really flat, but there is some dramatic elevation here in limestone.
Truly breathtaking
This was definitely worth stopping the car and following the trail.
Find your next adventure in your own backyard (i.e. within an hour's drive, I bet)
And our final reward for our trail treks. Once back in the car, we drove into Cleburne and found a really tasty Tex-Mex place - La Fiesta. Mmmm. enchiladas for me. Fajitas for Ray.
Once home, it was siesta time. Perfect day.
Interesting landscape. I'm glad you keep exploring treasures like this, and get good food in the process too.
ReplyDeleteOh Robyn - I never miss a meal, my friend!
DeleteHi Joanne - it does sound a lovely trip for the two of you ... and also for Ray to try his knee out - sounds like a good surgery ... whereas food - a necessary 'evil'! Cheers Hilary
ReplyDeletealways nice to have a stroll in a park. It's been fun seeing how much variety there is in the state parks.
