The outlook for Tuesday wasn’t very promising so the main goal was to get out of West Texas and set up for what is promising to be a very exciting end to the week- more on that tomorrow!

Not to be defeated though Dan picked a target for some possible activity near Fredericksburg TX, with a stop in San Antonio and the Alamo, on the way.

Remember the Alamo

The San Antonio Riverwalk

San Antonio was a surprise with a vibrant downtown and lots of period buildings to explore, not limited to the Alamo!

By late morning however it was time to see what we could get from the weather and resumed course on our target for the day.

Just outside of Kerrville our target received a severe warning

As the storm became severe warned the hilly terrain of this part of Texas gifted us the perfect place to stop and watch as the storm rolled over.

As the storm rolled over we took shelter at the rest stop, witnessing the heavy rain, and cannon like thunder!

After getting what we could from the storm we continued North towards Abilene TX, via beautiful Fredericksburg and some truly stunning scenery.

With no chasing expected today and tomorrow we’ll continue our trek north and recharge our batteries in anticipation of an exciting end to the week.
