Rest areas, picnic areas, roadside stopping/resting areas along US 281 in TX?

[Jack and Liz Pearce]

Howdy.



I want to say a big THANK YOU to all that replied to this thread. The
information was very helpful. I also kept a log of landmarks such as
county roads, business buildings, etc near picnic areas. I need to type
this up. The only info I didn't log was GPS coordinates. We don't have a GPS device.

Pete was right about slowing down 3/4 mile after seeing the Picnic Area blue highway sign! There was an area where the sign was right across from the site!!! Not much warning, at all. That was unusual, though.

We did see Corey and Jenni Graham on the road. We honked the horn and waved frantically as we passed each!!

Thanks again for your help.
