Trammell Crow Park — Attraction in Dallas

As I turned the wheel of the Car toward the park and my eyes hitched on first glance of the water, birds, and the hazy Dallas skyline, I was totally and positively floored. It was as though I stepped into an alternate universe...I was astonished by all the natural beauty, I was almost brought to tears....who would have thought that all this was here just beyond the concrete jungle of Dallas ... I was so pleased with my findings that I used this opportunity to center or align myself and meditate..... have a great deal to work through as ive lost my husband of 18 years as well as a best friend and a beloved furbaby...I felt a healthy sense of comfort and peace that day...what a great gift to have found this serene spot ....absolutely stunning In the early mornings.

As I work at a Crowe property, the Hilton Anatole, it is especially a proud feeling for me that such a prestigious family & locale is so concerned about preserving our natural beauty in Dallas, TX by participating in the beautification of Dallas. As I am a born native of Dallas & have seen all of the changes in this city in the past decades. I am so thankful for others that care. I thank God for those that are also appreciative of nature's beauty. And as the article in the Dallas Observer so aptly put.
