Brackenridge Park



This last weekend was one of the best I have had in a long time. What made it so great was the time together with my family. As Steve has been finishing up the last little bit of his training here in Texas he has had some time off in the afternoons. On this last Thursday he got off early and we went to the Brackenridge Park. The park was beautiful! There are some 384 acres of land that make up this park. Some of it has been developed into a golf course, amphitheater and the city Zoo. However, a large portion of it is left in the natural scenery found here in Texas. This tree and wooden filled park has hiking trails, camp fire pits and a fun fun train ride that goes through out the park. We went on the 20 minute 2 mile train ride that went over the San Antonio River, through the woods, and past some other features the park offers. We all loved it and had a great time. After that we went to feed the ducks in the river. Sabrinna had fun watching and pointing at the ducks. We walked around on the trails and let Sabrinna wonder around. She was in her element. She was walking around, pointing, talking and picking up all sorts of rocks, twigs, and anything else she could find. Steve and I just sat back and watched as she enjoyed herself. It makes us so happy to see her beam with happiness.
