Leafy Houston

Houston does seem to have a tremendous number of big shade trees. These are photos of a neighbourhood right next to our hotel. Great houses, trees, gardens...but what is with all the broken sidewalks? Sidewalks are in poor repair all over the city (except in the Rice University grounds).


One of many broken sidewalks.



Fabulous trees.



Just like home with all the squirrels...no squawking crows.



We saw the Obama/Clinton debate this week...I like them both.



You don't see a lot of Palm trees but I'm sure it's a great location for them. They don't really offer any shade, though.
