Swmbo and I hiked up Shoal Creek which is an urban creek cutting north from downtown Austin into the western edge of the University of Texas north campus. Because of the Spanish beginnings development near waterways was discouraged so even though this is an urban creek it appears pretty ex-urban. In any case, it is interesting that even though the creek runs through a very diverse group of neighborhoods the people who choose to use it are not very diverse. Access is easy and occurs throughout the creeks course so there is no barrier or difficulty accessing it as there is at Malibu beach in LA. So, we start with a spirited discussion where the daughter appears to have something to say: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Monday+Misc/mother+daughter+discussion.jpg.html This young lady was enjoying a shady glade to read her phone: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Monday+Misc/peaceful+grove+by+the+creek.jpg.html This Mom(aupair?) was doing an excellent job managing two active boys: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Monday+Misc/Mother+encourging+children.jpg.html This mom was encouraging useful play with her children on the creek: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Monday+Misc/children+playing+by+creek.jpg.html We will end with this enterprising young lady climbing a tree and encouraging her dog to climb as well. The dog was very adept at modeling: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Monday+Misc/adventures+in+an+oak+tree.jpg.html That's all for today. All the best. -- Don don.dory at gmail.com -- Don don.dory at gmail.com
