13 feet high right now. Last night the river rose 9 feet! The Paluxy can flood in a flash! . . . . . . . . . . . . #paluxyriver #flood #nature #tpwd #dinovalleysp #dinosaurvalleystatepark #betteroutside #turnarounddontdrown #erosion #rain

Most photos from #DinosaurValley #StatePark showcase either the “Blue Hole,” or the main dinosaur track site. But whenever I visit, I always make it a point to stop by 1) the river crossing along the Cedar Break Outer Loop, and 2) the clearing at the very end of the #PaluxyRiver Trail. The latter, in particular, offers fantastic sights as you approach sunset, and best of all, I have never seen anyone else there. It’s incredibly peaceful. If you live around Dallas/Fort Worth, Dinosaur Valley is a must-see! It is by far my favorite park in the area.

Puddles aren’t the only signs that it’s rained. These impressions in the sand are from the impact of the raindrop. While these probably won’t stick around to fossilize, paleontologists have found fossilized rain drops (last picture) and are using them to learn about the climate of earth long ago! . . . . . . . . . . . . #paleontology #geology #thekeytothepastisthepresent #nature #dinosaurvalleystatepark #dinovalleysp #texasstateparks #betteroutside #raindrops #fossils #tracefossils #fun #paluxyriver #ichnology

I thought I’d bring this #instagramtakeover to a close with some visuals from my home park, Dinosaur Valley State Park @dinovalleysp. One of my favorite hikes follows the shoreline of the Paluxy River around the park, offering an up-close and unique perspective of this river. The textures and colors are pristine, and refreshing to the eyes and soul. Recently, I sat at the Blue Hole just to watch the bass skim the shoreline and the catfish feed on the bottom. Almost every time I do this, conversations with passersby spark up and I get to answer questions and chat with people who are enjoying their day doing the exact same thing. By far, my favorite question I have received so far in my ambassadorship was from a 5th grader who asked if the park had ever thought about or considered trying to bring dinosaurs back to life! I hated to disappoint the kid, but that seems like a job for future ambassadors. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀I’ve truly had an awesome time this past week sharing with you parts of my story and the experience of joining the #txstateparkambassadors. I thank you for taking time to hang out and hope you’ve seen or read something that’s inspired you to #getoutside & #findyourpark soon. My farewell wishes to you guys are that you keep striving for what you’re passionate about, advocating for what you care about, and continuing the movement towards a life lived outdoors. Who knows, maybe I’ll see you at the river. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ credit: @raeoutthere credit:
