Krause Springs, where the water is a chilly 70 degrees year-round, is our destination this weekend for Mr. B.’s Cub Scout pack’s fall camping trip. It’s west of Austin, unlike McKinney Falls where we stayed last year, so we won’t be awakened by jets taking off from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. That will be nice. I expect the boys will do what they did last year, each find a long stick and head off into the woods playing tag. They’ll swim in the cold water, we’ll watch. Campfire at night, and S’mores, of course. I nicked the photo, the best I could find, here, from a fellow who shares our interest in astronomy and has some really nice astrophotographs you should check out.
THE TEXAS SCRIBBLER 
In Vermont 70 degrees is a hot spring. Even the water at the New Jersey Shore doesn’t get that much warmer in the middle of August. I guess some Texans are just getting “soft” in their old age.

Yep, y’all sure know how to live, up there in Yankeeland. Believe I’ll confine my swimming to home, thanks.
