The morning was cloudy and forecast rain, so we left Bastrop and moved south west to the Escapees park west of Hondo, which is just west of San Antonio.
Nice place. Lots of blue sky and warmth.Tuesday: After Propane man came, we left to explore the “Cowboy Capital of the World” ( not just Texas) - the city of Bandera, just north of Hondo about 40 miles. Visions of ranches and cattle and horses and cowboys and dust and pick-up trucks. Wrong!!! It was a town in the middle of rolling hills with lots of trees, and lots of dude ranches for the city folk to come and pretend they were cowboys. However, there were some interesting old buildings, and the museum did have a shrunken Indian maiden head on display, and a two-headed goat – photos not allowed.
the older buildings of Bandero - Not cowboy at all!!!

But it was a nice drive on a warm, sunny day.
