Take vacations. Go as many places as you can;
YOU CAN ALWAYS MAKE MONEY
YOU CAN’T ALWAYS MAKE GOOD MEMORIES
When it’s about camping and outdoor recreation, nothing can beat Texas. It is so diverse that it would be hard for any other state to compete with it in any aspect. Camping in Texas has something for every camper. You just name it, and you’ll find it here.
Bandera Texas is called The Cowboy Capital of the World… and for a very good reason! It looks like a cowboy town!
Not a fake cowboy town with people wandering the streets wearing cowboy costumes…. No, Bandera Texas is the real deal!
Without a doubt, South Padre Island Texas is one of our FAVORITE vacation destinations!
My family and I discovered this little tropical paradise a couple of summers ago. We have been hooked ever since!
Some of our favorite things to do in South Padre Island are the beaches, a visit to Schlitterbahn, and fishing.
If you’re wondering where South Padre Island is, follow the Texas coastline towards Mexico. It is a couple of miles off the coast just about on the border with Mexico. A bridge connects South Padre Island to Port Isabel on the mainland.
We moved to San Antonio (with the Army) from Illinois in 2010. We had talked about going to the coast (South Padre) for a while but never did until this past weekend.
We went to South Padre Island with our 89 pound dog and we were able to get a condo right on the beach. When we opened the living room and bedroom doors, there it was.
The Quiet Hill Ranch is a little piece of heaven that is the most family friendly place our gang has ever been to.
The little log cottage, although not large, was tastefully decorated with original paintings, beamed ceilings and had many other amenities.
The view… it looks over this big valley with the hills coming down each side and it was spellbinding. At night there were only 4 lights in the far distance and at 2100′ elevation the stargazing around our campfire was awesome.
