[Stan]

It would be cool if they plastered over that block wall and painted a desert landscape- sort of like your photos. I know if I was there,I would have to stand up the Cyphostemma and prop upright with a rock. How do they not see that?

[Meangreen94z]

Yeah, I spotted that and thought Stan! It looked like they were propping it up intermittently with rocks. The park could use a few things but wasn’t too bad. It was definitely on the polar opposite end compared to Texas State Parks .Which are typically just natural settings ran on an extremely thin budget.
