It’s a travel day for us. We pack the truck and camper and are on the road. Today’s goal is a state park a bit north and west of San Antonio, Guadalupe River State Park. We don’t have reservations yet we hope to find a site there.
First thing to do is ignore our GPS directions. This is not from the difficulties encountered yesterday where it took us on non-existent roads rather to avoid the traffic of the city. With Wells at the wheel and Marsha at the map we did a large arc around the city on two lane roads. As we traveled inland from the coast we started seeing more Indian Paintbrush wildflowers along the road. The roadsides were often painted in red by this lovely flower. Then yellows mixed in and finally blues of Bluebonnets. Traveling on these small roads with a trailer does not allow for pulling over to photograph. These small roads still have a speed limit of 70 or 75 mph. Tomorrow will be a photography day.
Mid-afternoon we arrive at the state park and they have room for us. We set up and enjoy the remainder of the day. Tomorrow we’ll spend with a friend of Marsha’s from college, Denise and her husband, Jim.
