March 15/2016 Weather really warm above 85, nights 57. There is a storm coming by weekend so we are riding early in the week while we can.

| The backroads go on forever. |
In Hill Country you will like the road. It is so peaceful and quiet meandering along.

| Billy says" are you sure we are not in someones' lane way??? |
There are lots of Farm or Ranch roads, and many of them are paved. We head out with no particular destination except to stay on paved backroads. When they say Ranch/Farm roads they mean it. Livestock can roam freely on the ranches and across the roads.

| Hey!!! Your on the wrong side of the fence.... |
At the property lines on the pavement there are the piped cattle guards and often fences that can be shut if need be. Today all the fences were open, but we had such remote back roads that Billy got tired of slowing down to go over the cattle guards...... Lost count of how many there are......

Much of the land is about 2000 feet and rolling and rocky so when rains come thru the creeks are full. Apparently the week before we arrived there was about 4 days of rain. When you drop down into the low spots there will be a Flood Gauge sign and warnings that the road maybe under water.
