Our Indian Burial Mounds
Our little piece of Texas is in the “Hill Country.” Yes, there are hills and even mountains in Texas. We also have a considerable coastline, with beaches, scuba diving, and more. Texas has some great features and some crappy weather and politics. The Economy is second to California, and Austin is the heart of it all.
We moved from Maui to Texas—crazy, right? But it has been a good decision. We live in a paid-for home on 2.3 acres of fenced-in land. Our place is at the bottom of a small valley and the end of the road.
When we first moved here, sometimes random people would stop and ask us about the “Indian burial mounds” rumored to be on our land. Three “mounds” were visible next to our creek and gully. Whether or not they were Indian burial mounds, I do not know. They are barely there because we leveled the land for our riding lawn mower.
We also built a fire pit next to the “mounds.” In the last ten or so years, the mounds have blended in with the fire pit. I doubt they were actually “Indian burial mounds.”
