Ride in the country
Posted: Tue Nov 25, 2014 2:08 am
We live in the suburbs, with plenty of traffic lights and straight, flat roads.
Hauling our scoots out to rural towns with twisty roads is like going to Disney Land for us.
-We unstrapped the scooters at Brenham, TX. After a lap around the square, we took old Chappell Road.
Old Chappell Road had plenty of curves and scenery. However, there were few places where it was safe to pull
over for photos. In my first pic, you can see a white car approaching as I rush to hit the shutter. The shoulder of the road was
really soft from recent rains.
-We stopped at a Masonic Cemetery, just outside of Chappell Hill. Some veterans of the TX revolution buried there, clearly marked. Someone really has put a lot of effort into maintaining this site. Not a Freemason myself.
We hit the main drag in Chappell Hill, shown in the second pic. Did some Christmas decoration shopping.
Upon return to Brenham, we had lunch at Smitty's Cafe on the square. Great onion rings.
Back to traffic lights and straight roads tomorrow.
