Well, we're back! We stayed down the road from Garner at some cabins that our friends own. It is a must for us each New Years holiday. No crowds and the weather is always beautiful during the day and COLD at night. We had a huge campfire the entire time. We went to Garner two times and it was nice to have undisturbed bike riding. We decided the park was between five and eight per cent full. Not many folks at all, but more than in the past. It seems that the Frio is becoming a favorite destination during Christmas and New Years, according to the locals. Even the teenagers like it at this time. The river was icy as always but it did not stop the Camp Live Oak Polar Bears from jumping in. (I have pictures and also some sense.) Have a save and peaceful 2008, YALL.
