Default Texas Hill Country Riding...

We are blessed with a plethora of Beautiful Twisty Roads that wind through the Texas Hill Country that attract riders from all over the country. Well I took a nice 150+ mile ride today to a small town on one of these roads to Stone Henge II, a replica of the real monument and some Moai replicas of Easter Island. They were built by a Texas Resident that was fascinated by these Wonders of the World, so he and his neighbor built replicas of them. I got off w/o getting a picture of the Moai but here is a couple pix of Stone Henge II...I hope you like...





The Stream just next to their location...

LOL!

In Sacramento at sons place. High today was about 75. Forecasted for colder for the next 4 days - then heating up to mid 80's next week.

I'm done with Texas heat!

I'm sorry that I never made it out to see this iteration - but i was fortunate to see the real thing in '07

Glad to see you're out riding. Stay safe Steve!
