    We used the ferry going to and from the San Jancinto Battlefield. Nice experience at no cost!! Could see tugs and ocean going ships up close while waiting for the channel to clean so we could cross.
    The feffy was not running one day because the weather was very very windy.

    This nature preserve was created from an old neighborhood which was abandoned and razed after multiple hurricanes. This is a hidden gem with 7+ miles of hiking trails. The majority of the hiking is paved (the old neighborhood streets) with some gravel paths as well. Note that most hiking is without tree coverage, so wear sunscreen. The center includes fishing piers and a playground area. There are nice views of the Houston Ship Channel, San Jacinto Monument, and the Baytown Bridge. The is a $4 entrance fee for adults (13+yr) $1 for children (5-12) and senors (65+).

    The Baytown Rotary Club hosted a luncheon at the Wetlands Center where we were entertained with a presentation of the tactile learning styles and activities offered to all Houston Regional school districts.

    I attended opening night 11/30 and there was A LOT of Christmas Spirit, not just a little.
    In addition, there was plenty of nostalgia and heartfelt feelings to go around—-even if you were not a Boomer. From the opening, the lead character J.D. got right into his journey of finding what he was missing in life and sent the audience on a make believe trip into SantaLand. I love happy endings.
    Well done. I am going to see it again!!!

    I don’t know what Traveler256828 is talking about. This place is great! I’ve been coming here to this beautiful park for years, people of every race here co-mingling all the time. There are basketball courts, tennis, disc golf, trails, dog parks, work out station, playground and more. Never have I seen anyone have a problem there. I bring my dog there regularly and everyone is friendly. If traveler had a problem (that wasn’t from them causing it) it was probably just a random bad person but no reason to trash the whole park in a review.

    It's a shame this bridge did not exist when I lived in the area. Traffic flow in this area is so much better than the old tunnel that went under the bay.

    Visited the Baytown Historical Museum. I concentrated my efforts on Poet John Peter Sjolander, shipbuilding by Kilgore Ship Yards and Confederate Naval Works at Goose Creek. I explored the works of Ashbel Smith M.D. who is considered the Father of Texas Medicine and Father of the University of Texas. I reviewed an exhibit on the local newspaper known as The Baytown Sun. The museum is free to visit.

    Beautiful evening with friends and former Houston Mayoral First Lady Elyse Lanier was celebrated with a special evening commemorating the naming of the Bob Lanier Memorial Parkway which is the portion of 99 that runs through Baytown and Chambers county.

    Our granddaughters play on a girls softball team and played several games here. We enjoyed the amenities, the bathrooms are clean and well stocked and they have covered bleachers to watch the games.

    Very modern and up to date, a safe place for kids to play ball.
