Bastrop Texas

Why Bastrop Texas? Because we didn't make it to San Antonio. We stopped off at lunch and decided to have a look at a motorcycle shop, which led us to look at another shop. A number of items of safety gear were upgraded.

What has it meant to be in Texas? well we now have hills, not mountains, just hills which we haven't seen for several sates. We can see for, well meters rather than being down in the swamp and surrounded by trees, we can actually see paddocks, some cattle, a lot of hobby size farms and some serious farms with fences, and a couple of rodeo grounds, even some paddocks of rice. Doesn't seem like much but it is a change. We even saw some grass that wasn't green any more. The temp was around 93 deg f, 35 deg c and not likely to get much cooler. We have not seen any tornadoes yet and lets hope it stays that way.

Towns, well there was Saratogo, and the the pick of the day was Shoot n Cut. I am serious!
It wouldn't be Texas with out an oil jack pump.
