Wichita Falls stop - going North

I drove the 260 miles from Georgetown to Wichita Falls area to Lake Arrowhead State Park. This is a really nice park. The campsites are in a wagonwheel configuration with 6 camping spots in each circle. They have picnic tables and a fire ring. Lots of shade trees all the way around. The tent sites are set away from the RV area and the equestrian is away from in another section.

Lots of butterflies were out. Unfortunately, on the road up I probably hit a few hundred of them as they were plastered all over the front of my rig and the windshield is really 'gutted' with their remains.

New blossoms on this treet and it was loaded with the butterflies.

One got caught on the tag.

I know, not a butterfly but how pretty.

Now the lake area. It is low like about all the rest of the lakes in Texas, but not as low as I had anticipated.



Headed to O K L A H O M A!!!
