“Some campsites give you a nice view. Others give you a front-row seat to a Texas sunset you’ll never forget.”
After weeks of being on the go, we wanted a trip that felt easy — something close, but still beautiful. So we packed up the Sierra, piled the dogs into the F-250, and headed east to Lake Livingston State Park.
The park sits right on one of the biggest lakes in Texas, and as soon as we pulled in, I knew we’d made the right choice. Our site backed right up to the water, with enough space for the dogs to stretch out and explore.
The days were simple: fishing off the bank, grilling burgers under the awning, and walking the shaded trails with the dogs leading the way. But the magic came at sunset. Every night, the sky exploded in oranges, pinks, and purples, reflecting off the still water. We sat in camp chairs, dogs sprawled at our feet, my girlfriend sipping a glass of wine, and I thought, “This is exactly why we chose this life.”
Not every trip has to be a cross-country haul. Sometimes the best memories come from a quiet lake, good company, and a sky that refuses to quit.
