Wildflower drive-3 around Cuero, TexasWildflower drive-3 Cuero, TexasApril 12, 2007. We stayed in a small "locals" RV-Park for the one night we were in Cuero. It was clean and adequate with a 50-amp and 120V connector at the park post but no 30-amp it did have water and sewer and cable all for $15---Rivercrest RV-Park Cuero, TX 830-591-6022 Upon entering Cuero from the south on US-77A (US-183) we started looking for a roadside rest area that Texas provides along most highways. We wanted to drop the motorhome and do several wildflower loops in the Saturn. We spotted one less than 7-miles south of Cuero that was perfect for our need. Within a few minutes of pulling into this rest area we were in our Saturn and headed out to enjoy some of the areas famous wildflower drives.

The wildflower drives around Cuero in April are simply delightful. If you visit Cuero stop by the wildflower society building and pick up a map of the wildflower drives. Not only will the ladies provide you with a map they will point our where you can see the best display of certain species and their recommendations change daily with the bloom.
We are headed to Fredericksburg, Texas tomorrow. Tomorrow happens to be Friday and "you know who" wants to be there for the weekend action that starts Friday afternoon. Luckenbach will never be the same. VBG
