well the Temple mtn/Miller state park portion of my idea didn't work out.
It cost $3 per person to drive to the summit. The road up to it is extremely narrow and steep. The summit has very limited parking. Not very ideal for our group. The view is spectacular, but I just couldn't justify a drive up there.
We found some awesome backroads that were nice and windy, but I was also aiming for some scenic areas to stop at and not just "tunnel of tree" roads. I'm gonna try again possibly this saturday if I can and see what I come up with.
