We left South Llano State park and headed for Palmetto State Park. Stopped at Dixie’s Restaurant for lunch. The salad was large, the meatloaf was not to good and the mashed potatoes were covered in gravy. The cornbread was great and they had sweet tea that was served in mini pitchers. Our waitress was very nice and attentive.
Upon arriving at Palmetto State Park we purchased medallion for hiking sticks, a CCC handbook and a nights pass at the park. After parking we went walking. We passed some mud boils that are inactive (since the 1970’s). There is also a swamp area that is kept wet by some kind of pump the CCC built. The CCC was a great service to our country.
We noticed Turkey Vultures coming in to roost and looked around to see that it was not just a few but over a hundred. We were told that they go to a chicken farm and eat the dead chickens that are thrown into a pit.
