What's Next?

Oops, I went 3 weeks between blogs! But does anyone care? I’m thinking of getting out of this computer business – at least cutting back – I can't seem to cope with some things. For instance, I can't get these darn pictures to go into the text at the right place. What’s Next?

Well things have been different at the park. The water is up. Here are some pictures to compare to my earlier ones that showed the extent of the drought.

The drought effect is still with us though. Here is a green tree that just fell over one night. Notice how the limbs just snapped off because they were so brittle. It seems that the sap all goes to the leaves and the rest of the tree suffers.

Since I am an extra host, I have been doing a lot of extra effort on the new nature center and filling in as needed during the holidays. I had fish for Thanksgiving, but we will have a turkey day for the staff next Wednesday, since the park will be shut down for a deer hunt which will reduce the over populated herd.

The South East Texas geocachers were here on Thanksgiving – but only 2, besides me, showed up.

Last week we had SNOW. I thought that I had escaped that! It only lasted for about a day. The snowman took about 4 days to disappear.

I’m thinking of discontinuing my computer service and getting an I-phone in February. If any of you have had experience along those lines I would also like to hear from you.

Tomorrow, I am going to D’Hanis TX to check on a co-op lot to buy, so that I will have a permanent place down here in the south. More about it in my next blog – if anyone wants to know.
