Village Creek State Park

Our last stop in Texas is at a small park near Beaumont. It has a lot of hiking trails, but after a very heavy rain, many of them were difficult to navigate.  BTW, slough is pronounced “slew”. It is not a river or creek. The ranger defined it as a place where the water could run either direction depending on the water level as the water leaves or returns to a stream or lake.
Early on I went on a ranger-led trail and saw Christmas wreath lichen.


Morning at the creek.
