\tLast night the wind was steady at about 25 knots but by this morning it was down to a nice breeze. The mostly cloudy weather yesterday broke up this morning and the sun came out to produce a gorgeous northern Texas day. Right after breakfast, some extremely chubby quail and a couple big roadrunners came around our trailer on food scavenging operations. The roadrunners are lightning-quick, picking bugs from the grass. None seem to escape.
\n\tWe took a bit of a driving tour down all the park roads to scope out the campground before pulling over at a parking lot next to Lake Cedar Breaks. The Lake is located at the bottom of a scenic ravine with fascinating rock formations and colors. We spotted a couple families fishing along the lake shore.
\n\tWe found a \u201cNature Trail\u201d that was shown on the park map as being 1\/2 mile so we decided to give it a whirl. It was a path that allows you to get to some great overlook points and it has little poles with numeric labels installed along the trail but we didn’t have a guide that told us what the labels represented. I’m sure whatever was being described was fascinating. The trail also seemed to be more than half a mile or I’m in really terrible shape. There are quite a few stairs along the trail but none so massive that an old guy couldn’t slowly make his way up and down the primitive assemblies.
\n\tWe spotted more roadrunners once we got back to the Invader. They are big, healthy-looking guys and the combination of their speedy gait, their displays of big retractable Mohawk feathers and extraordinary colors make for great bird-watching. I even got to see the NASCAR race after we got home. What a great day.
