A Mother’s Day as Big as the Outdoors
Enjoying a Mother’s Day picnic at a Texas State Park.
This is Passport to Texas
A card and breakfast in bed is a fine way to show mom your appreciation on Mother’s Day; but what about packing a picnic and taking mom to a state park instead?
With more than ninety Texas State Parks, there’s one close to you with plenty of outdoor opportunities for the entire family. But remember: keep the focus on mom.
Do you have an active mom? Then don some sturdy footwear and sunscreen and take to the trails for an invigorating hike [or nature walk]. Or, bring your bikes and take a freewheeling whirl around your favorite—or new favorite—park.
Remember the binoculars for wildlife viewing, and a camera so you can snap selfies with your mom in nature.
And that picnic? I have a link at passporttotexas.org to recipes that are perfect to take along on your Mother’s Day outing.
It doesn’t get much better than a picnic lunch surrounded by family and nature’s beauty.
Oh, and you know that Mother’s Day card you’re going to give to mom no matter what? How about tucking a State Park Pass into it so she can visit Texas State Parks all year long for free. Do that, you’ll be her favorite, for sure.
