Nigel and I were so glad to have Tim home an extra day this week. Since the weather is still bea

utiful, we decided to head to the
Fort Worth Nature Refuge. For just $10, the three of us toured the nature center and hiked two trails. We'd heard conflicting reports about the ease of seeing the animals here. Unfortunately, Tim's no-sightings

report from his boss held true for us on this day. We saw some caged rescue animals, including a bobcat and two owls. But the closest we got to a prairie dog was seeing one in a cage and spotting a tunnel hole in a field (
below). We saw no trace of bison. Still, the trip was very enjoyable. FW, Dallas and everything in between are concrete jungles. Even the beautiful parks are filled with concr

ete paths. So it was so refreshing to get out and see nature. We saw cactus growing wild all over the place (
below), some ducks and so

me ideal alligator spots (sans gators) along Lake Worth (
yes, that sign above says don't molest the gators!).
