On my break

Recommended Posts

I work and go to school at the University of Houston-Downtown (UHD). I was on mt break and a friend and I decied to walk along the bayou trail that starts at the university and goes thru downtown. The best part was that we found a hidden zen like garden.

cool pictures....i wish that water was bluish

Texas has two kinds of water. Green and Brown. Blue applies only to the Gulf, and then only on a few select days of the year. Everything south/west of the divide between the Brazos and Colorado watersheds is green (also includes many of the upper reaches of the Brazos), and everything north/east of that line is brown. Has to do with the kinds of soil.

I think there are alot of factors for the water color. Soil being the main one of corse ;) .

Also, I heard that pollution is also a factor, because it kills off those plants that trap soil at the bottom of bayous/streams/rivers. Which is another reason Galveston is Brown.
