The Long Hike

This past weekend my parents were in town and we decided to go to Pedernales Falls state park to do a little hiking. We took Austin with us and he had a blast exploring and throwing rocks! It was about an hour and a half drive and a perfect day to go.
I was in Picture taking heaven! I have put up a lot of pictures and some are similar. You will have to let me know which ones you like best.

These are some of the steps leading down to the water. I think this is a fav of mine.

Dad and Craig. Can you see them?

One of the small water falls..... well that was all there was. No big ones.

A close up.

The water was coming out of the ground behind this rock.

This one the water is coming up out of the ground.

This pool was pretty deep and it had a lot of fish in it.

Another waterfall.

A weird hole!

I think these two above are my favorites... I can't make up my mind on which I like best. Here fishy, fishy

Sand in our shoes.
Below are some more I like. My son and mother were throwing rocks in the pond and I started clicking away. Kind of cool I think!

Can you see the wildlife below?

The Boys.

This park had a couple of real small caves too.

The End

A few hours in Austin

This was our short trip to Austin. Craig's Mom was down from Fort Worth for work and Craig's brother Ryan just happens to live there. So we made our way down there half a day. Always a favorite of mine, black and white pictures!
A beautiful view off the bridge and up a hill that we walked up to take pictures. Not my idea but Ryan's! My new favorite brother in law!

Craig's Mom Rita took this picture. She definitely has an artistic eye!

Ryan also took us out to eat at this great BBQ restaurant on Lake Travis. Unfortunately I left my camera in the car instead of taking it in. Austin had a lot of fun feeding the turtles in the lake.

This is a picture of Ryan, Rita, me with big hair, Craig and Austin.

The pretty girl in this picture is Carla, Ryan's girlfriend.
