Barton Springs

I have read about the 3 acre natural sping fed Barton Springs almost since we moved here and have wanted to go walk around it. Rick and I have been driving downtown a number of times and tried to find the entrance and never could. We were downtown with Scott, tried finding the entrance and couldn't. Later Rick looked it up on a satellite photo and saw the way to get there. We went early in the morning, a few people already there swimming and the water was not warm, maintains an average temp of 68-70*, but we didn't join them (weren't planning to or in swim suits).

We walked around the park, came back and decided to go on the train ride, see what it is about so we can take the ggrrls this summer. It was only 25 min, so not long and I think they will find it great fun.
