Day on the Bay Corpus Christi, Texas

Today was finally sunny and warm.  We decided to drive south 30 miles to the city of Corpus Christi.  The city created a 30 mile "Hike and Bike" Bay trail.  What a visual difference in the economy of small country communities and larger coastal prosperous towns.  The reason "OIL", refineries are everywhere.  Not to mention Wind Turbines as far as the eye can see.

Following pictures will show the many interesting aspects of the "Bay Trail"  We rode our bikes and then also walked some of the trail.  There were marinas, playgrounds, skateboarding area for extreme sports, water features and plants for Alfreda.  Shrimp boats and aircraft carrier (USS Enterprise) for Dave.  The saltwater bay for Misty.

Individual unisex restrooms.  Dave said they are like prison cells all stainless and very small.
