JULY MAGAZINE PREVIEW: Texas Parks and Wildlife 
Magazine's annual water issue is on newsstands this month... 
we'll tell you what's inside...on Passport to Texas.

Passport to Texas from Texas Parks and Wildlife

The July issue of Texas Parks and Wildlife magazine is on 
newsstands laater this month. And we get a preview with Associate 
Publisher, Charles Lohrmann.

July is our water issue. In recent years we've done bays, rivers, 
springs, and wetlands. This year's water issue is about lakes. And 
in Texas that means manmade reservoirs, except for Caddo Lake, 
which most people agree is the only natural lake in the state of 
Texas. And we're lucky to have a funny and engaging article 
about Caddo and its history by Barbara Rodriguez. And, one of 
the driving forces behind the water issue over the years has been 
Dr. Larry McKinney, and he is writing a story that explains the 
"big picture" status of lakes in Texas. And, then one of the 
articles that I'm really looking forward to is E. Dan Klepper's piece 
about Geurrero, which is the eighteenth century town on the 
Mexico side of the Rio Grande that was inundated by Falcon 
Reservoir. So, we cover a little bit about lake culture and lake 
issues. And it's another aspect about the water issue, which is 
essential to us here in Texas.


Thank you, Charles.
