Been awhile since I posted last because we're just sitting tight waiting for this cold blast to move on. Today was warm enough that we went out for a drive in the country and ended up near Gonzales, TX. Actually we ducked into Palmetto State Park to see what was there. The park covers 270+ acres with the San Marcos river passing through. I was scouting for put-in/take-out spots for some paddling. The San Marcos offers a variety of of river conditions with a wide selection of in and out spots. This is a picture of the Refectory built in 1931. Built from solid stones and large timbers, pretty sturdy.
