Conroe, TX

This morning we started out driving SE on I-10 in a light drizzle. After about 20 miles we turned east on US 290 traveling through the Texas hill country covered with pecan trees and seeing some cattle and a lot of goats. We traveled through Johnson City home of LBJ population under 1200. Nearing Austin the terrain became flatter with green grass covered hills, with lots trees and cattle. Traveling east from Austin on US 290 it became somewhat flatter with green grassy hills sparsely covered with trees and cattle & goats grazing. At Brenham we turned NE on TX 105 to Conroe, Texas where we are staying at the Thousand Trails Lake Conroe Preserve. We will stay here until Tropical storm Ida clears the coast of Louisiana & Florida. I commended to Nancy that it seemed really good to see green pastures and lush growth as we really hadn't seen much since late Aug. in ND.
