Lake Travis? I'll Pass

Perhaps it was all the hype. Perhaps I just don't care much for lakes. Perhaps I am just a party poopster. Perhaps I just overused the word perhaps. Whatever the case, I did not find the Lake Travis area to be pretty. Sure the water is a nice color and you can't go wrong with the rock slash water combo, but it just didn't do it for me.



Maybe we just chose the wrong section to get a view of the lake. We went to the Mansfield Dam Park and had a hard time finding a shady spot. The beach was rocky and the scene on the water was that of personal watercraft and their high-pitched whines. I did see a wakeboarding boat launched but they had to look for calmer waters so I didn't even get to see any action.

Good day to sail

 

If you're into slicing up water with no true purpose and 

creating noise pollution then Lake Travis is for you.
