Blue Bayou Celebration, June 10, 2006
by Natalie Wiest

I don't know how many folks signed up, but it was a nice sized group and the bayou looked great from the water, with the banks all cleaned up (but some trash still on the water!) for the Blue Bayou celebration June 10th. This celebrates the improvements on the Sabine to Bagby promenade by the bayou. I've paddled this stretch of Buffalo Bayou over the past 20+ years - infrequently, but what a dramatic change over time. The City of Houston and Buffalo Bayou Partnership should be justly proud!

Right downtown, looking at the Main Street bridge and a part of the University of Houston downtown campus.

Allen's Landing park. If you look real close (not sure the resolution will support this), you can see "City of Houston". The kayaker is less than a block from City Hall.
