Forgot to mention that Bastrop State Park was part of the huge wild fires last year. We passed through miles of burned miles of burned forest. This area was know as an isolated region of Loblolly Pines and hard woods. We could see new growth of oaks and pines. Our route took us through the 2 parks, very quiet. One drawback was the steep gullies we had to climb out of. Bugs are winning...I'm going to the tent.
