Ruthie swims with dolphins?...errrrrr....ducks!

Here at Balmorhea State Park in west Texas.  How could we not jump into the constant 74 degree spring fed waters of a gigantic swimming pool.  Built by the CCC, this pool (or should we say lake) is big!  Even has rocks, sand, fish, and ducks to snorkel with, while swimming around the water.  So Morey & Ruthie jumped in and swam, seeing a different environment than when in St. John.

And as I'm typing this blog, the wind kicked up into the 40mph area and we watching blowing sand and tumbleweeds....true Texas!!  This after a high today of almost 80 degrees, and a low tonight of 22.  Note picture of Morey holding a typical Texas tumbleweed!  {picture taken this morning before the wind kicked up.}
