Lake Kyle and Local Drainage

Kyle's hot air balloon festival lifts off near Lake Kyle, a reminder of how much water moves through this part of Hays County. On clay lots, the goal is to move storm water past the house quickly and keep soil moisture steady between storms.

Before the visit, gather your builder warranty and note when doors first began to stick.
