Good idea. Don't really need to get anything off the ole chest, I'm fairly thick-brained and have good reference points in life from having been close to death so very many times, and believe I understand what is truly valuable - not money or shiny things, etc.
You're down a little southeast of here and yes if you have time and find yourself in the hood north of A, consider a trip out to Enchanted Rock for a nice drive thru the hill country, and climbing that thing and I know of some eagles nests on the way out and also enjoy the antique shops in Llano. Plus there is Buchannan Dam, Fredricksburg and over 419 other things to do out that way, including the famous springs at Lampassas. Why is it so frucking hard to find people who appreciate this stuff ?
