Journeys of Discovery: Texas Hill Country’s Highland Lakes getaway

The Highland Lakes region of the Texas Hill Country is less than an hour from Austin, but it’s a world apart.

Correspondent Tom Wilmer visits with locals who share insights about unique places to stay, outdoor activities, and talk about Texas’s world-class wines produced in the Highland Lakes region.

"Cherry Springs Swing" from the album "Rodeo Night" was performed by award-winning, Marble Falls, Texas-based country singer/songwriter John Arthur Martinez.
