TPW MAGAZINE -- DECEMBER PREVIEW: Looking back to look 
ahead ... we explain on Passport to Texas

This is Passport to Texas

The December 2011 issue of Texas Parks and Wildlife 
magazine holds a variety of delights for every reader, 
much like a Christmas stocking filled with treats. Editor 
Louie Bond.

62 -- I think that's what we definitely have this December. First we 
look at something serious, which is a retrospective photo essay 
on the year's historical droughts and wildfires. We look at it in a 
way that this brings on new birth and re-growth. So we hope to 
look back and also look ahead with this photo essay from our 
own wonderful photographers who have been all over the state 
covering these crises. And then on happier notes, we're going to 
look at animal rescue volunteer groups across the state and the 
great they work they do. And I'm sure they were called in on these 
particular instances as well to do their work that they do for little 
or no money -- really just for the love of wildlife. And then we'll 
also take a little adventure way down deep into Good Enough 
Springs, which is the largest underground cave systems in the 
united States, and one of the most dangerous dives anywhere. 
And it took our photographer and writer more than a year to get 
access and amass this information, and get the photographs in 
this really difficult, dangerous place. So, I think there's going to 
be something for everyone this December.

Thanks, Louie.
