We rolled into the small town of Junction, Texas yesterday afternoon. There's a city park where you can boondock for free, right by the river. A lot of the buildings are pretty old-fashioned, like something out of the 1900s, which is pretty cool.
We put up the antenna and made a few unsuccessful attempts to get internet from in town, but no luck! Fortunately, there's a library and a laundromat with free WiFi just a little walk into town.
My mom and I took a bike ride across the river and out of town a little bit.
The road was pretty steep, but we made it up to a scenic overlook, with a really cool view. We're pretty sure that rocky cliff you can see is what Google Maps called "Lover's Leap."
We came back down from the hill and rode a little ways further along a flatter road, until we came back into town.
This has been a great place to stay for two nights -- tomorrow we're off towards Del Rio, we think!

Beautiful! Looks like you guys are getting a lot of biking in. That'd be a dream to me.
