Another Volksmarch

We had such a good time meeting Susan and Bob last Sunday that we planned another Volksmarch hike with them for yesterday. This time they came to our home for brunch. It sure was nice of them to drive over an hour from San Antonio to visit.

After we ate, we headed to the starting point of the hike. The hike was entitled “Bridges” so we were expecting a path along the river in Kerrville. Instead we started at a park and then walked through some residential areas. A lot of the route was in the open with a hot sun beating down on us. Highs yesterday were near 90 degrees.

We did finally make it to a large bridge across one of the main roads. We spent a little time looking over the side. The river was pretty and looked cool.

There were lots of turtles swimming in the water. I was about ready to join them.

There were quite a few tree stumps right under the surface. This one was especially large. I’m thinking the boaters need to be very careful not to damage their motors.

By the time we finished the 10K (6.2) hike, we were ready for some refreshments and dinner. We went to Mamacita’s Mexican Restaurant. Dinner was very good. After dinner we headed back to our home for dessert. Susan and Bob had brought a cheesecake sampler, so we each enjoyed a delicious piece of cake.

Susan and Bob headed home, and we did some chores to prepare for our departure today. We look forward to meeting up with Susan and Bob again some day!!

Don’t wish upon a star – Reach for one!
