Texas Trippin'

Random Texas Post + a Video!

 How is it going? Busy Bee Me here. 
I took a quick ride out to Palmetto State Park on Saturday with an old friend. To our surprise the park was closed.  We really should have known with all the crazy floods of late. We planned to hike around on the swamp trails, (now that the weather is finally cool enough to be outside), but no luck. I did take a few pictures before we left.

I also posted on 9/27/13 a short drive in the same park if you want to see a bit more. I was last here (and it was flooding then too!) in May 2015, but cannot find that post. I'm pretty sure I posted those pictures..but maybe not. 

Read about the Park here on the official site. Which we didn't before we left, or we would have known it was closed. But oh well, it was a nice drive out there and good to get out of the office too.

Don't judge on my video skills, ok?

I love that it's really green now in the area, but there is a lot of debris everywhere from the high water.

San Marcos River was really low -

I think they released a lot of water from the San Marcos River because of the flooding (more rain is on the way!) so it was low. As you can see from pictures it was a overcast day. Rain is predicted for the next few days again.

Ox Bow Lake.

Driving through the park - if you didn't want to watch video.

Scenic overlook.

But it wasn't a total waste- we did have a fun trip to Buc-ee's Lol
Catch you later-
