Hi Ya'll!

When we first started exploring Texas by way of epic roadtrips, we had tight budgets to work with. But after quickly realizing how easy it was to get a whole lotta bang for your buck in Texas, it became a passion of ours to find affordable adventures that were a little off the beaten path. And that’s what you’re going to find here in this blog. Mixed in with a little Texas history and a ton of Texas pride, prepare to be inspired to get out and explore the places that make Texans proud to be Texan.

welcome to the blog...

When you think of the Texas coast what beaches come to mind? Most people know of popular Texas spots like South Padre Island, Galveston and Port Aransas, which I can attest are all wonderful destinations. But there’s so many more great places to visit along the Texas coast and we were ready to check out some new ones that are a little more off the beaten path.

Exploring the Texas Coast

Where were you right before the covid craziness began? For us, we were in Burnet on a spring break camping trip to Inks Lake State Park. We were hiking all the hikes, and roasting all the s’mores, and enjoying all the rugged Hill Country beauty that area has to offer totally unaware how much life would change the next week.
