Frio Rio

Has it really been over a week since I posted last?! I apologize. I can't believe how fast time is going lately...

So. Over the weekend Kyle and I went on a little get-away to the Frio River near San Antonio. It is a 100% spring-fed river, so it was impressively clean and cool (I didn't feel like I was in bathwater all weekend!) It was a GORGEOUS river, and I have pictures to prove it! We took Tucker along with and he had a BLAST. Seriously, I have never seen that dog swim so much. The pictures pretty much explain the weekend, so I will let them speak for themselves!
This is where we spent most of our time, sitting on and around these rocks in the cool water.
I still can't get over how crystal-clear this river was. That is about 5-6 feet deep.
The puppy dogs LOVED it.


Texas' largest tree was right where we stayed for the weekend. It is 96' tall. Circumference of 438". Crown spread of 112'. Seriously HUGE.
The pups look so tiny!
Our group for the weekend.
We were quite impressed with the set-up behind us. Do you see that tent? Those chairs? They had obviously done this a time or two. Don't worry, I took notes.

When we weren't sitting on our rocks, we were floating! .

So relaxing and so refreshing

 Overall it was a super fun weekend outside the city with some great friends! I would definitely go back in a heartbeat. It still was not quite like the lakes in MN, but it was as close as we are going to get I'm afraid! Cheers to the summer!
