Peggy, I've enjoyed learning about E.R. and Ann Taylor Park. I always appreciate your excellent and well-written articles. The photographs have brought your article to life. I always admire how you provide photographs and go into small details. As always a very fascinating read. Loved it !!
Thank you so much for creating this lovely hub.
Blessings to you!
This looks like a beautiful park, Peggy. I love the whole story about this family also. Thanks for sharing this excellent article.
Thank you for posting it, Misbah.
Thanks Misbah, I am so glad that you liked learning about this park and the namesakes of it. It is wonderful that their children donated the land to the City of Houston for everyone to enjoy.
It is wonderful to know about the history of E.R. and Ann Taylor whose children later donated their homestead to the City of Houston and it was converted to Historic Forested Oasis Park with attractive elements for visitors to enjoy. A beautiful contribution, Peggy. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thanks to Misbah for posting Peggy's article.
A wonderful article by Peggy. I always enjoy her information about beautiful places. An interesting read with it’s history and beautiful pictures.
Thank you for sharing Peggy.
And, thank you Misbah for posting the link.
Peggy I loved the background story, and the photographs of this beautiful park are stunning. How wonderful that the family donated the property to the city. Thank you for sharing, Misbah.
Hi Pamela, I agree that the story about E.R. and Ann make this story about them particularly interesting and valuable in history. Thanks for your comment here.
Looks beautiful, Peggy. I enjoyed the background and history of the park as well. Definitely a place I would frequent. A Happy Thanksgiving to you.
Hi Rosina,
Thanks for reading about this pretty park and the history of how it came to be. Those old ancient trees are amazing to view!
Dear Misbah, lovely poem. I could relate to the feelings expressed by you. We may know a person well, but we will never know their actual story. One should never be judged by their outward personality. I enjoyed your rant. Thanks Brenda for sharing.
Hi John,
Even though we live in countries far apart, it is a pleasure to be able to share some of the beauty that exists in this park, and relate the story behind it. The children of E.R. and Ann Taylor are to be lauded for donating this property to the City of Houston.
It was wonderful to read about this lovely historic park, Peggy. The pictures are all beautiful. George and Ann's story is also so endearing. it is very nice of the family to donate their land to the city of Houston. Their generous act has helped create a nature retreat for bird lovers and other people to enjoy in peace. Thanks Misbah for sharing.
Hi Chitrangada,
The way you take photos of flowers and nature, I felt sure that you would enjoy these photos. Thanks for taking the time to read this article and leave a comment here on the forums.
Peggy
Your articles always amaze me.
You put so much time and effort into each one.
I love the story of ER and Ann ~ it was an uncommon union which survived.
It's sad some of their children didn't grow up to be adults.
I love your pictures but I'm disappointed with Hubpages...they have placed ads in between your photos.
I can say skip..but it honestly has no place being enclosed in your work. It's distracting.
The pictures of the birds are interesting & so is the park.
Great article.
Hi Chitrangada,
I am pleased that you enjoyed learning about this park and the story of the people who settled there. I knew you would like the photos since you feature the beauty of nature in so many of yours.
Hi Bill,
I hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving as well. Yes, this park is definitely one worth a visit if you are ever in this part of the country.
