As we went down the mountain it was still really cold but, no snow.
Snow!
It was cold enough up in the mountain that it snowed!

A shot of our rental car at the overlook!
Scenic overlook
We stopped at a scenic overlook stop and took a couple of pictures. You can see the terrain is changing again. We're out of the trees and it's more desert again.
One last shot
Last shot of the rock formation before we leave

Fredericksburg
We had tickets to see Rob Thomas at the Majestic Theater in San Antonio on July 11th. We decided to go on a mini road trip to get there. We left on Friday morning, took back roads, went to antique shops, saw oddities and wildflowers, stayed at the Hangar Hotel in Fredericksburg and made it to the concert Saturday night.
