Hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween. Sunday was a beautiful day for a ride out in the Texas Hill Country. But first, Hildr and I had to stop by my warehouse to get a little work done...

We found Old Cypress Mill Road had reopened after being closed for an extended time due to a bridge being built over a treacherous low water crossing. That crossing was so bad that a nearby rancher had taken it upon themselves to post a home made a sign warning motorcyclists to take caution.
Anyway, onwards towards Stonewall via 1320, 2721 and 1623. There's a clean rest stop on Park Road 1 that sits along the Pedernales that's one of my usual pitstops...

We stopped at the Blue Barn at the intersection of 165 and 2325 in the hopes of picking up a Dia de los Muertos cook book, but they had sold out. Nevertheless, I got a pic of Hildr amongst the Marigolds...

Made it home in time for some pizza and the start of Game 5 of the World Series. The Astros took the game in Astros style and are headed back home for Game 6.
Go 'Stros!
