The Texas Trip - part 2

Day 2 began with an early morning roadtrip to Lexington, TX for Snow's BBQ. Snow's is only open on Saturdays and usually sells out by noontime (they open at 8 am.)

From Lexington we headed back to Cedar Park via backroads to Taylor and back through Austin.
While taking pictures of some bluebonnets, a local couple drove by and told us about plush fields of bluebonnets about a mile away. Need less to say, they were right.





After getting back to Cedar Park, it was time for my niece's soccer game.

After the soccer game it was on to Victoria for the 3rd annual Scott Taylor Band Suck Head Eat Tail Crawfish Festival. This was my second time for this festival (2013) and again it featured great crawfish and an awesome music lineup. The music had begun around 11 am, but we didn't arrive until 6 pm.
