This past week I went... *gasp* camping. About 10 minutes from a Walmart superstore and with more or less the ability to run away but these are besides the point. Our arrival coincided with the beginning of a major freeze so it was Texas cold. But I lived to tell the tale. Was only 30 feels like 19 when I woke up in the tent!

Sunset was fast approaching near the end of our almost 10-mile hike that had snaked through the back of the state park, stopping at just about every extra bit we could see or tack on. So we took a shortcut through the park along an unpaved utility road where this was taken. Looking through a field of tall grasses and among trees ravaged a decade ago by fire.
