Grapevine Lake, Texas

Looking for a good hiking route in DFW metroplex area, the trail around the Grapevine lake is an option. May be not in Summer as it's right around the lake and it feels way more hotter than it really is. Not something you need in Texas Summer.With that said, it's a great option for a Fall or Spring time.

Most lakes in Texas, with the exception of two are man made. Natural or not, sails in water capture my attention and a place on this blog. Must have been the influence of English poets like Williams Wordsworth. Too bad they do not do much of English poetry in my kids' schools, at least not yet.

Received some goodness from a friend's backyard. One bite into it, I am determined to add some plums and peaches to our garden next year.
