Walmart bikes are pretty much junk, although I just picked up a used Huffy cruiser bike for $30 at our RV park yard sale. I just wanted it for cruising around the (flat) RV park, as I have nicer bikes (two road and one MTB) I don't want to bother with for just a tenth or half a mile. Sometimes it's fun just to hop on a cruiser bike and go! But I won't have any qualms about donating it when we leave. That's one advantage of cheapie bikes!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15572905521059358017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-46402339354419002462018-04-08T10:39:13.142-04:002018-04-08T10:39:13.142-04:00It isn't closed at all!It isn't closed at all!Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-24267830730979389002018-04-08T10:28:03.604-04:002018-04-08T10:28:03.604-04:00Schreiner City Park doesn't look permanently c...Schreiner City Park doesn't look permanently closed as shown on Google maps.MikeZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09889000164284791966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-84413683491783264412018-04-08T10:20:40.977-04:002018-04-08T10:20:40.977-04:00Thanks for the suggestion Creigh, we may look into...Thanks for the suggestion Creigh, we may look into it but I doubt it.

Didn't see any bluebonnets blooming in the park though although we did see some on our drive yesterday, hopefully we will see more of them before we leave Texas.<br /><br />That is what we are looking for, our fingers are crossed that we will be able to find two decent ones.

I can now understand why it was in close competition for the Texas state flower. <br /><br />If you can find two mountain bikes at a garage sale or flea market, you will have hit the jackpot. Mountain bikes are such sturdy bikes compared to the standard bike. However, trying to find one to fit Kevin's tall body frame will be hell (notwithstanding, he is a good looking fella! LOL!).
