Days 13 & 14. Heading back to San Antonio.

Days 13 & 14.  Heading back to San Antonio.

Way too soon it was time to head back home.  

Along the way we stopped and fixed lunch at the Pecos High Bridge picnic area on US-90 about 40 miles west of Del Rio.  The last time we stopped here, about 10 years ago, there were signs prohibiting overnight parking.  The signs are gone now, so it looks like a really nice place to park your RV overnight.  Great views of the Pecos River Arm of Lake Amistad.

Looking down river toward the mouth of the Pecos River at Rio Grande River

This is where the Pecos meets the Rio Grande. Lake Amistad is about 35’ low.  If the lake was full, there would be 15'-20' of water here instead of the little stream you see.

At the picnic area there are three historic markers describing the High Bridge and the area.

We spent the night at Governor's Landing CG at Lake Amistad National Recreation Area.  The next day we headed on home.  No pictures of Governor's Landing.
