Meridian State Park



Meridian State Park, Meridian Texas
3-17-2013 to 3-19-2013

Diverse hiking trails with two Texas Geocache challenges will walk your feet off.  At least we walked them off.  We have a two pound Chihuahua who took these trails like a pro - we swear she must be part cat with her agility.   One of my next pictures will be of her because she deserves a whole section all by herself.  The park is limited in geocaches yet it makes up with wifi...yes WIFI IN OUR BUS!  We had a lovely private spot...space #1.  I love the way this park is laid out because you really do feel private.  There are great cabins here that are rustic and really only offer a roof but have great views of the small lake.  The trails walk all the way around the lake and we actually caught a fish here.  Well my husband caught a catfish with hotdog that was probably about three pounds (bigger than our dog) and sadly that would be the one and only fish on our 8 day spring break park tour.  The park offers FULL hookups and boy the septic spots make all the difference in the world when it comes to shower time.  We are in the habit of bringing a grey water storage container with us for stays longer than two days.

This was our second stop on our spring break tour and it was lovely.  I wish there had been more than two geocaches but hey...we walked enough for the two we found.

This one-of-a-kind, never-to-be-replicated watercolor pencil and ink picture is a bit generic and really could fit in any texas park.  It did remind me the most of Meridian, however I drew it before making the trip (as I knew I needed more pictures than parks I had visited).

Please keep it as a keepsake or return it to another geocache so the story can continue.  All I ask is the picture be treasured and not destroyed, as it is a piece of our family.

  1. Holley, we found this while we were out for a hiking/geocaching day at the Dinosaur Valley State Park. It was by the waterfall. Thank you so much for placing such a nice unique piece of art in the cache. It was a joy finding it. Keep camping and caching!
