Every Texan wishes they were there with y'all. The Hill Country is the most beloved part of Texas. The cabin is so inviting!

[@rachelcookswithlove]

It is, we absolutely love it, peaceful and quiet, so good for our soul. ❤

[@Redeemed-3]

Miss Rachel, that made my day seeing you sitting in the water, love your recipes and all the inspiration you share with us. Enjoy and God Bless you and your family ❤🙏✝️

[@rachelcookswithlove]

You are so welcome! Thank you so much. ❤️

[@jackieadams5458]

Oh, Rachel, you brought back one of my best memories of being at my mothers home on an acre of land which backed up to a creek. I would often set a chair right in the middle, and read a book especially when I took time off to care for her as she was ill prior to her passing. Thank you for this.!

[@rachelcookswithlove]

Aw, thank you for sharing my friend. ❤👍

[@shelzp7272]

@jackie A sweet memory and tribute to your mom… 💕

[@MsLovieGirl]

Rachel!! Hi sweetheart, you are up in my beloved hillcountry.❤ My mother was from Kerville, cousins from Stonewall, Fredericksburg, Blanco etc...... I know that that beautiful road you and Ron were traveling. The hillcountry is so sweet and just full of God's love I make my Aquà Jaimica(?) just the same. Even though I can't spell it in Spanish, 😊. Wish I could give you a hug right now. The joy of the Lord is with us all today I hope. He is with me and I know He is even when we don't realize He's guiding our every step. Well, many many blessings be with you and Ron! and the hillcountry and river!! With love, Sharon Escamilla

Watch you when I can, my husband is ill and on oxygen so he watches a lot of KZbin especially your show. I am not sure he has seen this particular video but will tell him about it. What an awesome way to rest! Want to thank you for sharing your faith about turning issues over to the Lord. It is always encouraging to hear from others to love the Lord. :-)

We find that sitting in a stream is one of the most enjoyable experiences. We don't need to unwind like we did years ago but it is a pleasure. I'm glad that you have such a nice place to kick back and enjoy.

That’s so lovely, Rachel. I was born and raised in San Antonio. My parents retired between Bandera and Medina so I’m well acquainted with and love that area. When you call Ron sweetly by “My Ron” it makes me smile because I’ve always referred to my Bob as “My Bob”. ❤
