A really wonderful set Paul. I love the hint of the rainbow on the water in the first one, but my favorite is the second one, even though they are all super shots.

I know this is not the answer you asked for...........IMO crop out the structure on the right altogether make use of the peninsula on the left
I totally agree. I find the pier on the right to be a great distraction.

Twin yuccas taken at dusk. The name of the park is a misnomer as it is composed of gypsum crystals.
Beautiful place. Thanks for bringing it back to mind for me.

kind of an ongoing project. Lots of cool ones out there
I love these. You should start a thread here on UHH for others who have signs to share. I bet it would be VERY interesting................

Waiting for his pants to fall down? I thought that "look" would have gone away a long time ago......... Interesting subject and execution.

Great series, AuntieM
Thank you so much. I appreciate you taking the time to look at my post. I like your Avatar - what kind of bird is that?

Great photos and sounds like a great place.
Thank you for taking the time to look and post a response. It was a great place, but 2.5 hour drive from my home - one way - so would have liked to have stayed a bit longer for more photographs.

I've lived in S Texas for 28 years. Nothing here in this hot, windy, dry hellhole. Save your money and travel somewhere nicer! I retired from a Govt job here in McAllen but cant afford to move away from here.
I am sorry that you feel this way. Each place has SOME saving grace, you just have to find it. I have found beauty in each place I have gone - even Death Valley at 106 degrees. I hope you find some peace, beauty, and joy in your life.

For birding try Mitchell Lake water treatment plant near San Antonio, and Warblerwoods in Cibolo, also near San Antonio.
Thank you for these. Will check them out.

As you stand outside in front of the massive wooden doors of the Alamo, take a peek behind the left door,
at a small bronze plaque on the wall that tells the Alamo story completely in just a very few words, it reads,
"Speak softly Friend. Here, heroes died, to blaze the trail for other men."
Then, wipe your eyes and go into the old chapel...and feel the story.

You are correct. There are plenty of photo opportunities along the Riverwalk.
Thank you - I also like to people watch, so perhaps a nice glass of wine and some people time would be productive.

Thank you for the suggestions, which sound very interesting. I have booked a tour with Rockport Birding and Kayaking Adventures out of Fulton, and am looking forward to that. I will be staying in Rockport for several days, so I want to drive around that area and Corpus Christi as well, I saw Padre Island NS, and Mustang Island. I appreciate the heads-up on a good place to eat as well.
