Labor Day 2011 at Brazos Bend State Park, Texas

List of Photo Galleries at Flatrock's Garden

For Labor Day, 2011 we visited the local Texas State Park, Brazos Bend. As you may know we're in the midst of a pretty severe drought, which really struck home when we say the water levels of the lakes, and the dry beds near the trails. You can compare with previous photos of Brazos Bend State Park. Nevertheless there was still plenty of wildlife.
