			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We have an URGENT NEED for horse transport for evacuation in Bastrop County, TX. Barns that were used to house evacuees are now in the fire&#8217;s path. Rt 304 still open both ways and Hwy. 71 open.<br />
Anyone in the area who can help, please call Beth at 512-467-4893 or Rachel at 512-581-2940. There at least 43 horses in immediate need at their rescue, surely there will be more.<br />
Also, if you need to board a horse or other animals, please contact us.  We have had offers from several people who can help.  If you have room to board some horses or cattle, get in touch.  There are plenty of animals in need of homes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.dmtx.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/downstream-views.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-3074" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="downstream views" src="http://www.dmtx.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/downstream-views-300x241.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="241" /></a>One of Texas&#8217; most treasured features is its Hill Country located in the central part of the state and owning a piece of it is like owning a piece of heaven.  Many people think of Texas as a big desert or a dusty plain but Texas is one of the most diverse states in America.   Hill Country ranches can vary from valleys with bubbling creeks to hilltops grandly displaying the countryside.  Some of the most coveted Hill Country ranches even feature broad, clear limestone rivers such as the Pedernales, Frio, Comal or Blanco rivers.  Common wildlife on Hill Country ranches includes whitetail deer, axis deer, turkey and feral hogs.  Ranches in the Hill Country can range from just 20 acres to 20,000 acres but they all have common features of rolling limestone hills and broad oaks.  Many people see the non-native ash juniper more commonly called a &#8220;cedar&#8221; as an invasive species on Hill Country ranches but the mature trees have become home to the endangered golden cheeked warbler and black-capped vireo.  Protecting these species through conservation easements is one way owners of Hill Country ranches can gain tax benefits and protect the land from over development.  Owning a ranch in the Hill Country offers a place to escape the stress of everyday life and experience a little bit of unspoiled nature.</p>

Rare but not unheard of through this area, the last significant snowfall was on Valentine&#8217;s Day in 2004. Yesterday, the hill country got two inches, with Austin getting closer to one inch and parts of Williamson county, north of Austin, receiving three inches.  </p>
