Wouldn’t you know that you have to go to Giza Death Star website to get views of your own town. Never been to the pioneer town (didn’t know it was there) but I can see the outcrop that he climbed from the ranch. Two of my wells are in the same aquifer (Cow Creek) as Jacob’s Well- the caverns are throughout the area and why it was criminal for BlackRock to fund aa 42" natural gas line through the porous rock and aquifer. The Wimberley geology alone is worth a study if you visit.
Cypress Falls had multiple towering cypress trees lining the Blanco River before the flood in 2014 that took out multiple homes, killed several members of a family vacationing in a rented home on which they clung as it traveled downstream toward San Marcos. It took out a major bridge in Blanco and swept some 30 feet over the top of the main bridge, some 60 feet over the bedrock below, which was near the site of the swimming hole that he showed as “Cypress Falls” in Wimberley.
He forgot to mention, however, that as the motto for Austin is “Keep Austin Weird”… it is “Keep Wimberley Weirder”.

@justawhoaman I thought about you when I saw this…“I wonder”…LOL!
!I’m absolutely sickened by Blackrock! I was thinking strongly of moving somewhat west of Austin, but not sure now. I lived in Austin in the '70’s, Armadillo Club and all. Austin was always weird, which was fine, but now, way too crowded.
2014 flood got yall bad. Harvey in 2017 got us; I live 1 mile from where it rained 50". I’m convinced about 5 more inches would have done me in. When that rain stopped, it was A Blessing From God for me! Many others were not so fortunate. MSM saying 15", FIFTEEN, and I’m screaming at the TV, “Nooo, it’s 50!”
More than anything, I hope all these people who’ve moved to Texas and those thinking about it will think more than twice! No offense, but people don’t quite understand that Texas can be and is, a very unforgiving land, in many ways. COUNT ON IT! LOL! It’s likely to be what they left; expensive housing, water running low and OUT, omit every storm and crop-chewing, blood-sucking insect, too much to list.
Maybe it’s justa Native Texan thang.
