This beautiful photo is the Frio River flowing down a canyon at Concan, TX in the hill country.
We spent last weekend there at Neil's lodges. The cabin we stayed in was located on a cliff overlooking the river. Our son Ron and his family spend a week every summer here and wanted us to go see the Frio.
On our way to the Frio, we traveled thru the Texas Hill Country and stopped at the LBJ ranch and Fredericksburg, an old German settlement.
The area is very rocky and lots of pretty cypress trees along the river bank. The water was clear and cold.
Jim is outside the cabin we stayed in which was on top of a cliff. The cement picnic tables are used for the bird watching groups that come there in the spring.
My sister Carolyn and her husband Dave from Black Mountain, NC were here at this same spot last April on a bird watching trip.
Inside our cabin in the kitchen. James is watching Liz as she talks to her dog Luna.
The cabin was very rustic with nice Mexican tiles on the floor. It was cold at night and we built a fire outdoors and sat around it and enjoyed the star studded sky.
Lizzie, Ron and Ally standing outside our cabin with the river deep down in the gorge. It was a long way down there. Liz is a student at Univ. of Texas in Austin and Ally attends North Texas University at Denton, TX. We were happy to spend the week-end with all of them.
