Gosh we are past the halfway mark of 2011! I cannot believe we are already in July – another couple of months of summer left for me to make the most of it. And quite truthfully fall in Houston is pretty good to be outdoors too.

I love living inside the loop – just minutes away from the Hermann Park. But with record high temperature in June this year, we have not been regulars at the park. But one Sunday morning we headed out early to click some pictures. It is a great place to walk, run, picnic or just sit down and unwind. It is a big park with Japanese gardens, an outdoor theater, a toy train and a garden center. The zoo and the museums are right around the corner. This time around we struck to the park and the lake. We played ball, fed the ducks and squirrel, people/dog watched – here are some pictures
