    East Texas
  • Love's Lookout - Perched atop a scenic forested ridge beside U.S. Highway 69 north of Jacksonville, Love's Lookout offers perhaps the grandest view in East Texas. ... There are two great times to visit the hilltop -- in the spring, when the dogwoods and other spring flowers are in bloom, and the autumn, when the hillside is ablaze with red, purple, yellow and golden foliage.

  • Willow City Loop by Michael Barr
