That emerald green you see carpeting the ground is yet one more sign that the long cold Texas winter is finally fading into history.
At the top of the mass of emerald green, in the middle, you can see one man walking.
What is that one man walking on?
Fosdick Dam.
That being the feat of engineering that holds back Fosdick Creek creating the Fosdick Lake Reservoir in Fort Worth's Oakland Lake Park.
I do not know why big trees sprout from this earthen dam. I do know that standing beneath this dam is a bit less scary than standing beneath Hoover Dam.
The warm cloudy final Wednesday of March had a lot of people walking and playing in Oakland Lake Park today.
Currently, a couple hours after walking around Fosdick Lake, the clouds have grown thicker and are dropping a few drops. Thunderstorming is on the menu. I will believe Mother Nature is serving up a Thunderstorm today when I hear the booming.
In the meantime, I am on the hunt for a replacement A/C adapter for a Toshiba Satellite Laptop. It is proving to be a difficult hunt.

Someone named Matt Oliver is the Public Information Officer for the Trinity River Vision Authority. Could he be the son of TRWD's Jim Oliver?
And check out the upcoming Sunday Funday series. This stuff almost writes itself.
