to the Pedernales River State Park
to do some hiking and birding.
The day was glorious,
blue sky & water,
but only small pools of water
as Central Texas was experiencing
a severe drought.
On this revisit last month
the day was overcast, cold &
the drought is in abeyance.
The river is roaring!
This is a magical place to visit.
Someday I'd like to visit in the summer &
take a dip in the very cool waters of the Pedernales.
Maybe this summer there will still be water to enjoy.

Here you can see the force of nature and
how immense the area is in comparison to the man taking the photo.
It is breath-taking.
I just wish the sky had been the brilliant Texas blue,
but alas the day was overcast
& the temperature hovering around the freezing mark.

How lovely to see the contrast! A good thing, Yes?
I love the Perdernales. It is such a beautiful river.
Ohh, I was in Texas this time last year and remember it taking forever to rain and get green. Glad to see things are looking better thins year! That river is serious, nice shots - looks like fun!
