Another nice walking place in Rockport Tx is the Tule Walking Trail. We parked at the parking lot next to Walmart to start our adventure.

After parking we went up onto the shaded deck to check out the features of the Trail. 



From this parking facility the trail runs two directions so you get to choose a direction. We chose off into the brush and trees.

UPSTREAM VIEW


This is an upstream view of Tule Creek that is the namesake for the Trail. The trail is about 12 feet wide and concrete paved for all of it we walked today. It was a very nice walk



At one point we saw a yellow panther flash out of the grasses and disappear into the brush alongside Tule Creek.  It did not seem to be afraid of us.



A little past the panther the OFM knee decided we were finished, so we headed back. It appears to be part of the network of paths that connect several of the city walking facilities. When you come here be sure to check the map at the parking lot to see how all the different parks interconnect with hike and bike trails.

This would be a great place to attempt trying to have tooooo much fun.

    You might consider a store bought Knee Brace to occasionally wear. It could help you continue having tooooo much fun.
    Be Safe and Enjoy this New Year.
