Greetings to all.  Previous regimes in Austin preserved large swathes of
land primarily around waterways.  Now they are very much appreciated
greenways that let you pretend you don't live in a large city.  I always
look up when on one of these trails and enjoy the view:

Within the Wildflower Center there is a swath of prairie devoted to
preserving oaks derived from historic oaks around the state.  This one was
rather attractive:

Austin has worked hard to preserve its tree canopy starting many decades
ago.  Unfortunately, this means many homes aren't capable of putting solar
on the property:

All the best.
