Anywhere you go in the world, the people inevitably be friendly when they hear you're from TEXAS. It's God's Country! I'm lookin' out right now at the river lined with big ol' pecan trees and fields of wildflowers, with birds singing, the ocassional bellow of a cow, and a green lizard crawling a post.

Your wonderful description is reminding me of just one of the many, many reasons I LOVE this place.

Leaky is one of my favorite places to visit. Just look at how beautiful that is, would you? Talk about a "peaceful, easy feelin'..." ;-)

Frio River, Garner State Park

A decendant of Austin's and DeWitt's colonies, Gonzales, Bexar, and San Jacinto.

Quite impressive. :-)
