No doubt Ed's place is beautiful. Knowing Ed, I'd expect such from him. Plus, I saw some pics.

This Lake Travis area appeals to me. Outside of Austin area, I believe.


Bob, I was just there Tuesday & Wednesday to visit my boy. Here's a picture from The Oasis on Comanche Tr., which bills itself as the Largest Outdoor Restaurant in the world:

It's a pretty area, to be sure. We drove all the way down Comanche Tr. to the park, and there were some awfully nice properties there.

But... the traffic around that area (West and Northwest Austin) was horrendous. The boy reports his 4.9 mile bus ride will sometimes take an hour and 10 minutes in the afternoons. Lotsa crappy chain restaurants, and simply miserable traffic at nearly every waking hour of the day. Maybe the other end of the lake is less congested.

EdM is 15-20 minutes from Boerne, but it's absolutely a charming little town. I was charmed, anyway.

Just some thoughts from a midwesterner.
