| Mid-50s and windy, but we were warm by the end of the climb and glad to be admitted to the park. Only a certain number of hikers can be in the park at any given time. |
 |
| Info about Enchanted Rock. |

| Emma and P. Tom on the way to the top |

| About halfway up. |
 |
| Emma named this the hippopotamus rock. |
 |
| The indentations in the rock near the top, about the size of footprints, are said to have been made by ghosts. |
 |
| I was surprised to find pools with vegetation and fairy shrimp in what is otherwise a solid granite rock. |
 |
| Another pool near the top |
 |
| Cacti and other vegetation are thriving on top of Enchanted Rock |
 |
| View from the top. See the road in the distance? |
 |
| I have no explanation for this van. I especially like the hubcaps. |
 |
| After the hike, we headed into Fredericksburg for German food |
 |
| Apple strudel |
 |
| Yes, I'm a "cold" weather wimp. But look behind us! See the other hoodies up? |
 |
| Neat stepping stones on the way up and down |
 |
| This looks like the liriope we have in our back yard |
