Laredo Texas is just another city on the US / Mexican border but it does have a nice state park on Lake Casa Blanca. Zaph was very happy when he saw the lake and even happier when he was allowed to go swimming.

Zaph was pretty dusty after the ten days in desert areas --- guess it didn't help that he like to roll around in the dirt and sand. Thought the swim would either clean him up a bit or turn him into a mud puddle. Luckily it cleaned him up.

An old building near the campground in the state park. Don't know what it was or how old it is but I like the look of it.
