Stop and relax a while. - 03-24-2009, 09:17 AM


This is a bench under an old oak tree on the back side of Old Horseshoe Lake at Brazos Bend State Park. I don't think I've ever been back there and not stopped and had a water break for a while and enjoyed the view. It's away from the busy trails and very relaxing. Give it a try sometime when you're out there. It's one of my favorite areas of the park.

Cool fog. I feel my blood pressure dropping already from taking a nice "nature" break. Thanks.

Jim
The photo invokes a lot of emotion for me and can imagine the feeling people have when sitting there .

Truly is something I would put on my wall……….maybe with a caption like “ Think of Everything - Think of Nothing”
