A short post today! I left mid morning Friday [a late start for me] to drive to Refugio, Texas so I could walk Lions Shelly Park. Well, it was gated...closed. And they had several parks' employees mowing and doing work on the park grounds. I decided to drive another 50 miles to Victoria Texas so I could go to Riverside Park and walk the long Nature Trail, and check out the Guadalupe River for maybe some flooding [our Nueces River is out of its banks since they opened the flood gates up north at the dam on the reservoir]....anyway, I took many pictures of the park and golf course, the zoo, the river and fountain. But, I got home late in the afternoon, and didn't have time to upload my pictures from the camera to the computer...I will choose just these two from the Texas Zoo which, since I left home late, by the time I walked in the zoo entrance it was past noon...so most animals were hidden within their individual compounds in shade...sleeping probably. The zoo is within the Riverside Park. An Emu it was very curious so I dubbed him George....
