Make sure you have plenty of fuel before setting off on your drive.  (A Murphy USA is just across South Main St. from The Bevy Hotel, in the Walmart parking lot.  The station carries ethanol free fuel.)  While several of the drives have gas stations along their early stages, once you get out of Boerne, they’re few and far between.

Potty breaks are recommended before heading out.  Be aware that “pit stops” may be hard to come by along the way, unless you don’t mind running into the woods.

Please check the weather forecast before departing on your drive.  Several of the routes go over low water crossings and flash flooding is not uncommon.  Remember: When in doubt, turnabout.

Watch for deer!  They can be anywhere, everywhere and at any time of the day.

Google Maps waypoints have been placed along all routes, to force GM to take you along the “prescribed“ routes...not route you along GM’s ”suggested” routes.  On your phone, once a waypoint has been reached, a “pop-up” box should appear.  Just tap “continue” and proceed to the next waypoint.

Please be advised that, if your car is equipped with a bluetooth radio, you may have to disable other bluetooth enabled devices, in order for Google Maps to “talk” to you. Otherwise, you may have to constantly look at your phone.
