Last week a friend was visiting from NY and we went to Hamilton Pool to swim. It is way out in the country, a long drive. After we got there we found out we could not swim, bacteria count too high. But we got to sit by this beautiful spring fed pool.This was my first visit and I want to go back when I can swim.On the way home I stooped to buy a bottle of water at Bert and Ernie's, the little country beer store closest to the park. As I left, two Texas ranchers parked their two big white dusty pickup trucks and were approaching the door. Conversation went something like this:
"Today's a hot one?"
"Yep, looks like a long hot summer."
"Yep."
