Visit to Mount Bonell


After Noah's soccer game yesterday we went to Mount Bonnell in Austin.
"Mount Bonnell is a natural limestone formation that stands about 200 feet above the surrounding area. Named in honor of George W. Bonnell, various stories circulate about lovers who leaped to their deaths from the peak.
Popular as far back as the 1850's and 1860's as a picnic spot, it's also a nice afternoon hiking area, or just a place to sit and admire the views of the Austin skyline and Lake Austin on the Colorado River. " source: About.com

Looks pretty nice, not so sure it can be clasified as a "Mount"

Maybe a larger Hill

Ya... Austin being changed was definitely a Kodak moment.
And is that a kick me sign on Austin's back?
