Kerrville, TX




We set up camp in the Kerrville-Schreiner City park on the banks of the Guadalupe River far upstream from our last RV site.  Kerrville was once one of the main gathering spots for cattle drives going north out of Texas.  The park is huge and used to be a Texas state park but was given to the city of Kerrville a few years ago in a state budget crunch when the state got rid of about a dozen parks.  In addition to our usual activities, we took in a visit to the Museum of Western Art in Kerrville.  Besides many beautiful paintings and sculptures, the Museum contains the Western Research Library housing over 5,000 volumes of books telling the story of the American West.
