Lago Vista

In the fall of 2023, Varya, David and I drove and biked to a nice AirBnB house on the north side of Lake Travis for some lakeside leisure and Texas Hill Country moto touring.

With David on his GS, and me on Duca, we rode through hill and dale in a big loop around Lakes Travis, LBJ, and Inks, venturing as far north as the southeastern shore of Lake Buchanan. (“S” was our start/stop point in the lower right of this Lago Vista Loop map.)

Feeling peckish around Llano, we sampled an ill-advisedly sizable portion of Cooper’s Pit BBQ.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, passing deer watched Varya read and knit, unconcerned with golfers in the clearing.

Walking down a long, rocky shore to Captain Pete’s Boat House for a floating dinner really showed how low the water is in Lake Travis.

The perfect evening for Varya was a little nap in the hammock followed by quiet reading and knitting while looking across the dark lake to the lights of the southern shore…so hygge.
