Yeah, the same opening paragraph you’ve read before. Some of these pictures were posted originally
with the travel blog write-up (original link below). Now instead of a select few, I’m sharing just
about all the pictures. Some blurry or bad
shots were removed, as well as some with others who would appreciate not having
their pictures posted again. Please be
sure to visit the original blog link for more details of the original visit.
This was one of the first places I visited when I moved to Austin
in 2002, and I’ve gone back frequently (or at least driven by). The water level was high enough to actually
be going over the dam to create some great mist when I first saw it. It hasn’t been like that since. Mansfield Dam was also one of the first
places I took Mum & Dad when they came down on the first visit, so it was
nice to do a “re-visit.”
On the first visit we just hung around the parking area next to
the dam. This time I wanted us to get
some elevation to be able to see how the water level of the lake had gone
down. A short distance away, up on a
hill, was Steiner Ranch Steakhouse, so we drove up there. Technically they weren’t open yet, but they
allowed us to hang on the patio to be able to get a view of the area.
