This weekend, I continued my route down Rankin Lake Road on Saturday, then visited Horseshoe Lake Road on Sunday. Sunday was just a perfect, sunny day with a slight breeze. The recent cold snap and snow took out a lot of the black flies and mosquitoes. If you aren't in Seguin now, best get on up and enjoy the good times and great weather.
The 'Seguin Quotes' series reveals the considered thoughts and beliefs of the people of Ward 1.
