near Brenham, Texas

Half way between Houston and Austin, we pulled off the road in a small RV park. It is 7 miles west of Brenham in Texas. We're going to explore the historic Brenham town tomorrow, including checking out the legendary ice creamery. We'll stay here tonight and tomorrow night before heading the last 100 or so miles to our friends place at Round Rock just north of Austin. It has been pleasant to be driving in "hills" again -- the first time in nearly 4 months since we hit the east coast lowlands of North and South Carolina, Georgia and all of Florida as well as the Gulf area of all the southern states. Even Louisiana was relatively flat where we traveled. We hear that there are more hills ahead...
