THE PICTURE ABOVE

Is taken from Anahuac National Refuge. It is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. The vast wetlands surrounded by protective marshes filled with so many species of birds, the largest population of Alligators in the United States. My brother Bruce lived in Anahuac, Texas after moving his family there on a wing and a prayer for a job. He was smart and came by things naturally. He raised his children, Catherine and Bruce the 4th in this beautiful place which we visited, for me once again. My heart became opened as I felt the energy of my brothers spirit, who died way too young at 41. He was a wonderful father who loved his children and would do anything for them. He taught them to fish and swim, they spent a lot of time at the water. They have grown up into fine young adults with wonderful spirits, his son the same twinkle in his eye and the spitting image of my brother and Catherine, a big adorable heart filled with much joy. My brother was a wonderful father and you can feel the love surrounded them. It was a wonderful visit and my daughter, Katherine and son Erik joined us. We met their friends, went clubbing in Houston and I listened to some great music...A birthday party at and for Catherine's where we celebrated and made new friends. We met Bruce's wife Aurelia and his son, Bruce Alexander Hunter, 4th! I can remember when I asked my nephew Bruce was going to call his son, without hesitate, he said, "Well Bruce, of course." He's one and a half and devised his own language which he understands. He calculates his moves, you can see his mind working. He did not crawl, he got up and just ran (and hasn't stopped since!) He's a beautiful baby with a wonderful smile,
So, if you are ever in Texas and like birdwatching a lot, take a trip to see nature at her finest, do go to Anahuac National Refuge, spend a few days to explore! http://www.fws.gov/refuge/Anahuac/
