Drive Back From Kerrville

We took our time leaving the RV Park on Monday.   We decided to take the scenic route 173 back home.  Beautiful Hill Country.

We could not find a place to park in downtown Bandera so we found this place "Spoiled Rotten" which we thought was perfect.  It was almost if this space was reserved just for us!!!!
