So far so good here in Drippin'. Seriously... if anyone is ever passing through this way the campground we are staying in is a pretty sweet deal. It's called Cottonwood Creek. You need to be a pretty self sufficient set up in the sense that there is no bath house, no camp store and the nearest grocery is about 25 minutes away... but they do have laundry and free wifi. The main thing here is this... the owners CARE about the place and they are really in to helping you have a good stay while in their area. And the place is so freakin' quiet!

We checked out the town of Blanco yesterday. Our poor dog got stung by a scorpion at high noon right out on the town plaza. We rushed him to the vet and they fixed him up right quick but man did it suck. Hopefully that will be the end of that sort of business.

Has anyone ever been down to Bandera? We are thinking about trying that area out next.

Hey Cactus (the originator if this thread) the weather here so far is great! 80's during the day and 50's at night. Although I am sure it will drop down quite a bit lower pretty quick here. Have you decided if you are heading down this way yet?

Bandera used to be pretty cool... been "absorbed" by San Antone. Years ago, used to have a cool city park-lake to camp at. Haven't been there for quite some time because of traffic and expansion of the "Greater San Antonio" area...

Sorry about the Scorpion bite in Blanco... scorpions here aren't serious. You DO, however, know you've been bitten. Hope you get a chance to check out Wimberley, Fredrickburg, Kerrville )home of the folk festival) & New Braunfels. Maybe even take in a show at Gruene Hall...

We will be checking out all of these places for sure. I'm glad we will be here for a few months so we won't run out of time to get it all in. Thanks for the heads up on Bandera too. I will brace myself for the fact that it has been swallowed up in the sprawl. Thanks for the link to the hall... I will check it out tonight to see what is going on there.
