Once in a while I do manage to get out of bed early enough on weekends to accomplish something other than bumming around my apartment all day long. Today was such a day and the destination was enchanted rock. As the name implies, enchanted rock turned out to be exactly what one would expect; a big fat rock in the middle of nowhere. It is located about 90 miles southwest of Austin and it takes quite a while to get there. The rock itself is pretty cool, well in as far as a rock can be cool, and grants one some amazing panoramic views of real Texas landscapes. I took a bunch of pictures so jump on over to the Pictures section to check them out. But the rock itself is only half the fun, getting there is just as exciting. The roads are simply perfect for speed racers like me: narrow, but not too narrow, curvy, with a lot of ups and downs, and since this place is in the middle of nowhere there is no traffic and of course no cops. And while I would have had even more fun in a more sporty vehicle than my poor little civic, I still had no trouble hitting the middle 90s on my way there!
