Medina to Balmorhea

This trip was 355 miles of new and old scenery. We went through Kerrville and got on I-10. From there is was a straight shot to Balmorhea. From the interstate I was sorry we did not get to visit Fredricksburg. There were some interesting things there. But there was plenty to see just riding.


These are buffalo in a pasture just before getting to Kerrville. 
 
Near here is a place called Camp Verde where for a short time a camel train operated to and from California on a trade route.
 
 Below is a picture from the Kerrville Museum. Great cowboy art gallery.


We passed oil and gas wells aplenty. But the most wonderful sight was the windmills on mountaintops. We saw probably 200 and figured our view of many was obstructed by the hills. I wish we would see more of these. I don't like that they are made in China, but maybe this country will get there.





 
 
 Some lovely vistas along I-10.


WINDMILLS!!!  U S A...U S A
