In the Neighborhood of At the Cabin: The Turgid Pedernales


Great googledy moogledy! It has rained and rained and RAINED this spring and summer. Hammett's Crossing is closed; we drove down this morning to look at the swollen Pedernales River. Hugh kept saying,"It's not just a river any more; it's now part of Lake Travis!" It is higher than I have ever seen it. In normal conditions, this is a low-water crossing (see sign); now it's so high that you can't even see the road on the other side because what's usually visible from this side is now under water.
