On March 3rd we took a long drive, passing through Fredericksburg, Kerrville, Leakey, Rio Frio, Utopia, Bandera, and back. One of the things we saw a lot of was native and exotic hunting ranches, which had critters like: axis, whitetail, fallow, mule, and sika deer, black buck antelope, ibex, oryx, eland, yak, special rams & sheep, wild boar, elk, and turkeys. I'm not too sure about the history of this or how it all began, but it is certainly popular and has been going on since Bill was a boy. Another thing we saw a lot of was water, at least in the form of rivers and creeks - and flood gauges, which makes the title of this piece even more relevant, don't you think?
The Guadalupe River.
The Rio Frio. This has to be one of the neatest rivers we've ever seen. The clear water, weird rock texturing beneath, interesting trees and coloring... So this is why you're going to see so many photos of it (and to you they will probably all look the same!), but it was such a cool river, it deserves the space and recognition! I recommend clicking on the photos so you can see them larger.
And now on to the Rio Caliente.(no, just kidding!)
More water near Utopia.
