Just outside my front door...well almost...
« on: June 06, 2009, 12:57:44 PM »
Just this morning my wife and I took a hike and savored the natural beauty of our area.

The first video is the view after a 5 mile drive and a half hour walk up the trail of White Rock Mountain.  The second is a little secluded area near our house with a couple of lovely waterfalls.

We spent a week down your way a couple years back when my son graduated AF boot camp.  San Antonio is fantastic and we wandered on down to Corpus Christi for a daytrip.

This is from this weekend at our lake property. We have 280 acres with a huge watershed and 3 miles of creek connecting off that. We built docks and  have run electricity to it this year for all of our campers. and at the bottom at one end is a long area that we use for a shooting range.  Anyway, Marshal practiced shooting and Mark ( my ex) and granddaughter and I went fishing. You can catch 3-8 lb bass out of this all day long.
I'll share a few pictures..... :)

This one is half way across the main body of lake looking back toward the campsites.




These are in the creek section  which is so awesome..( and looks like it should be in "The Land Before Time"...)

Very nice.  Looks like a great time.  The wife and I are going to attempt a similar outing in August when we head out to Iowa where we've rented a two bedroom place on a lake.  Why a trip from Vermont to Iowa?  That 's where one set of kids are with two of our grandbabies.  Gonna try and start a family tradition....

Phil,

Are those things good to eat?  They look like big rabbits but do they taste like possum?  Rabbit I can handle....greasy possum, not so much.
