Medina River Natural Area & Greenway/San Antonio, Tx.!
I went for a walk/hike with my sister down this hike/ bike trail by the Medina River. Upon entering this Natural Areas environment, there was this warning posted, about what we may encounter, that made me think twice about walking through there but we did it anyway and it sure was fun! I happened to have my camera with me so I took photos of the trail. I kind of liked these. Enjoy!

South Padre Island/Summer '09!!
Hey Everyone!
I kind of lost myself in my children's lives and am just starting to focus on me again. Here's a few pics of some of my favorite places to relax and unwind at the island and in the Port Isabel area. I love semi-private areas with not too many people around if possible. Yup, that's my stuff in front of those gorgeous homes and condos. My daughter says she will own her own one day and will invite me over to relax and enjoy it with her! Enjoy!

About Me
- Name: Sandra
- Location: Edinburg, Texas, United States
Photo ©2006 Roger R. Lopez, La Vernia, Texas...Although I am not a photographer by any means, I do take pleasure in snapping photos so I thought I would try a shot at sharing some pics and also share some thoughts about myself and my family at the same time. I happen to know two very sweet and dear people who have a true passion for photography and have taken some fabulous photos and their links are posted here. I truly admire their talent and appreciate their encouragement for me to try something new. I admire them immensely and would love to possess even the teeniest bit of their talent! Thanks you two! So about me... a girl who grew up out in the country in the outskirts of San Antonio, Tx in a small town called Elmendorf, Tx. I grew up in a humble family of 6 who lived on 33 acres. Let me tell you it was the best! My parents grew their own fresh fruits and vegetables. We used to have an orchard of plum trees. It was the best being able to go and pick a plum to eat right off the tree...yum! I'll always be proud of where and how I was raised and will never lose my love for living out in the country! My dream is to live out in the country again someday!
