State Park
We detoured west on the way back to Dallas in order to check out Enchanted Rock State Park. It's a giant rock in the middle of hill-country that natives once believed to be haunted. At night, as the temperature changes the rock will creak, groan and apparently shimmer and reflect unexplained lights. On that day, many people had the same idea as us and it was over an hour wait in the car on the highway to even get into the park. Once in, we put on our hiking shoes and got an amazing view of the area. It almost felt like being on the moon. If you were quiet and looked closely however, there was wildlife all over the area including birds, deer and lizards.
Highlights:
- Seeing our first roadrunner. I chased after him with a rocket and roller-skates but he escaped.
- Enjoying the beauty of a grazing herd of deer. (Dun dun DAAAAA....*foreshadowing*)
- Getting some exercise.
