Wild Texas Newsletter -- August 1998

*** EDITOR'S NOTE

Welcome to the August issue of the Wild Texas newsletter, your guide to Texas parks, nature, and travel. This is a special month for us here at Wild Texas. In August 1995, we created our first Texas parks and travel site on the World Wide Web. The success of that first site spawned Wild Texas in May 1997.

Sharing our adventures, travels, and nature photography with you through this medium has proven truly rewarding. We hope you enjoy Wild Texas and the opportunities that await you in our beautiful state.

*** NEW TRIP REPORT

The trip report for our July camping trip to Brazos Bend State Park is now online. Find out what birds and wildlife we observed while pretending the summer heat was not getting to us!

*** UPDATED PARK PROFILES

We are listening to your feedback and working to make the Wild Texas park profiles even more useful. We now use Microsoft Expedia's free mapping service to generate all maps to the parks. In addition, we now provide more detailed weather information directly on each park page.

Visit our newest park profile, Galveston Island State Park, to see the changes first-hand:
