Conservatory

Some photos of the Lucile Halsell Conservatory . One of the focal points of the San Antonio Botanical Garden .

Nature Connects

The San Antonio Botanical Garden has a new event called “Nature Connects”. The artist is Sean Kenney , and he connects Lego pieces by the thousands to make large sculptures. Pretty awesome!

Donkeys

Oct8

The other cool thing about Berry Creek Park and Preserve is that they have two donkeys. They have a large corral for them with lots of hay and water. While I was there, a family with small children came up and fed them. The donkeys came to the fence to check me out and one of them allowed me to pet him. That was nice of him. 🙂

Flowers and Snake

Oct8

I saw tons of cool stuff while walking at sunset today at Berry Creek Park and Preserve. The hiking trails have both beauty and danger, so beware! I’m not sure what kind of snake that was on the side of the trail, but lucky for me he had a full belly (check the bulge in the picture) and was too lethargic to be bothered with humans. He totally caught me by surprise! I took a quick photo and moved on.

Conference

Oct7

Here are some pictures from a Social Media Conference I attended all day at The Westin Austin at The Domain . It was designed as an Unconference where the attendees set the agenda and lead informal sessions on topics they are passionate about. I liked the format, and it kept me engaged throughout the entire event.

Riverwalk

Here are some of the results of me being a tourist today at the Riverwalk .

St. Joseph Catholic Church

This church is right on the Riverwalk and was a great subject for some photos.

MadDogs

Oct5

Today I am taking it easy and staying out of the sun as much as possible. I had a great time watching some football and chatting with the staff at MadDogs . This is one of my favorite bars along the Riverwalk and today’s visit was perfect.
