A rural wetlands part of my hometown, in suburban Houston! Taken in December. And my 1st ever post here of my hometown. You've seen my travel photos and you've seen my new city Kirov, Russia. So here is suburban Houston :). And some of the beautiful wetlands and marshes! I grew up and lived almost all my life in the crowded suburbs, but this park is a quite rural and isolated part! Quite idyllic :). It's at the Armand Bayou Nature Center in southeast Houston. I was home for the holidays and my dad and I went to the park :). I haven't been to this park in many years! It's surreal how much wilderness is here, as it's in the middle of a typical American suburb. Albeit one with a lot of history and economic importance (NASA, oil refineries, etc).. It was a peaceful late autumn walk! Even though it is technically the winter season ;). But autumn begins & finishes late here!

And I love the scene here with the red marsh! One of my favorite parts of the park! And so much other great wetlands! The 2,500-acre (10 km2) nature center is the largest urban wilderness preserve in the United States. Founded in 1974, the center consists of a boardwalk through forest and marshes, live animal displays, bison and prairie platforms and butterfly gardens.

Magnolia Hotel Houston, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was am excellent location! I walked to the Hobby Center and to the Discovery Garden for the SSF25 without any problems. The view from the room was even better. All of which waa made possible by Maddy and Brooke at the front desk. I had breakfast with great service from Tawande and his staff, and ask for Victor (concierge). He was full of information and a delight to talk to. At this time, there were a couple of wedding parties and other group celebrations, but it was so well managed. The king bed is super comfortable and the TV was sports fan appropriate size. Highly recommend this hotel. Will definitely make this a frequent / regular stay."
