This page will take you to Trip Reports to Special Places in Texas and Beyond I have visited. The places are special and I trust you will enjoy the journey. For those of you who truly know the people and place of Texas, you are blessed with the smug satisfaction, that a small sense of what made us a great people still exists. Unfortunately, this “state of mind” is under threat. Visit these pages and keep the faith.
