This was to head down on the occassion of Lucas' birth! I was going to leave much earlier but the center of the country was walloped with a major storm that caused serious flooding.

My first night was in the Horse Cave KOA. I wanted to stay commercial due to the flooding. I could call them and be sure of conditions. The second night was at the Little Rock North KOA. Both were nice for a single night's stay. The third night was at the Blue Sky Lake Livingston RV park. This is a great example of how to do a commercial park. It was just right in many ways. While there were small sites and many full times (e.g. trailer park type) for a commercial park it is pretty nice.

I did get to stop and visit Lake Livingston State Park. This is a nice park on the par with Findlay. Smaller but nice.

Lots of great times with the family. Matt and Lucas:

Here's my office:

The Great Blue Herons around the development lake are getting tamer.

It was mating time at the Brazos Bend State Park and the alligators were all about it.

Here's a huge male swimming quickly while riding very high in the water. You only see this during mating.

Rarely see a bunny, but it is spring!

A Black Crowned Night Heron. There were lots and lots and lots of birds.

When I do 40 Acre Lake and then the spillway and around Elm Lake, it is sometimes not possible to finish a lake. Here is a nine footer blocking our way around Elm Lake after wen went almost all the way around. Luckily there was a volunteer on a cart that shooed this one back in the water ... where a similar sized male was waiting.
