Flowers and Butterflies

We went to the Zilker Botanical Gardens this afternoon. These are 2 good flower photos. Zoe had fun chasing butterflies.

Hiking Walnut Creek

We went hiking in Walnut Creek park. Very nice trails, a lot of Ashe Junipers, and some of the trails go right beside rather steep drop offs down into the valley where the creek is (the creek is mostly dry). Very nice walk in the woods.

Afternoon exploring Bull Creek

More outside stuff in austin, no bull!

One of the things about Austin that I really like is all the great things to do outside. Today Zoe and I went to Bull Creek and played in the creek and the waterfall. We also hiked up a pretty steep hill for a bit. Bull creek is kind of hidden away off the road, no signs or anything pointing to it, just a parking lot. You just need to know its there. There are a lot of places around here like that.

Barton Creek Greenbelt

We hiked around the Barton Creek Greenbelt this morning. I think this is part of the hill country of Texas, not sure, but we definitely were up on some hills.
