I decide to drive over to Reamers Ranch just to take a few pictures and see what the winter foliage looked like. There were a few cars in the parking lots but as it was fairly late in the afternoon, I was not surprised at the small number.
I parked in the second parking lot that has road access to the river and took just my camera with me as I knew that I was not planning on walking very far on any of the trails.
There were a couple of families with kids exploring the river at the swimming area but being winter, no one was in the water. There was another group that were fishing but I didn’t get close enough to them to see if they had caught anything. Further down river was a motor boat with a couple of people on board just drifting in the current. Such was the nature of the day with the temperature in the lower 70’s. Not bad for wintertime in Texas.

A lot of green for February, huh?

yes, it has been a good winter…
Cold and windy here in north central Illinois, with 55 miles an hour winds lately.
That is why I moved to Texas out of New York State. Today was a balmy 65 degrees.
It all looks very pleasant, Francis. The only fishermen I’ve seen recently have been sitting on the ice at the local forest preserve. Not my idea of fun!
I did a little of that when I lived in Upper New York State. Don’t miss it one little bit….
Hi. My name is Christopher Allcorn. My Father is Peter Allcorn. He is your nephew. His father was Norman Allcorn. I live with my Dad in North Carolina. I found your blog today and wanted to get in touch.
Interesting that I get not one but two comments from out of the blue from people who are related to me even indirectly. Is your Father from Normans first marriage? What was his wife’s name?
The other comment is from my Aunt, My father’s sister. They are both from Norman’s second marriage that moved to Fort Plain. They were born in 1967. I showed my aunt this blog and so she also commented.
