Hill Country Riding

Feb 27/2019 Weather 80/53  Sunny, beautiful day for riding.  
We headed out of town past Luckenbach, on our way to find some backroads to Blanco.  Our farm to ranch road followed the Blanco River.  Neat old ranches.  Rolling hills.

Sometimes you would be high enough to see vistas for miles.  Pretty area.    At the Blanco Quilt Shop which is an old bank building we stop and snoop around.  You have to love a shop that has cowboy boots sitting just inside the door.  The fabric is stacked in rows of old wooden shelves.  Just a pretty picture.  The old theatre is next door and the bathrooms are shared with the quilt shop.  The movie reels adorn the top of the walls and the black and white tiles are very old school.   Billy talked to the ladies and we found out where everyone eats in town; which will be our next stop.

After Blanco we head south to Canyon Lake.  Since coming out west in the last 8 years there have been several occasions when we met people who were camping at Canyon Lake.  There are about 4 COE(The Corps of Engineers) parks on the lake.   Our curiousity is taking us to one of the RV parks on Canyon Lake called  Potters Creek.  Nice RV sites with views across the lake for $26 !  What a bargain.
