Mountain Cedar Allergies
January 20th 2012 21:05
Some of the normal symptoms of mountain cedar allergies are an itchy, runny nose, sneezing, nasal blockage, excess tearing and itchy eyes. There also may be an irritating cough and headache. The allergy is at its peak from December through March when the male cedar tree is producing pollen and it is dispersed in the air. It is only the male tree that causes the problem as they female tree produces berries and not the reddish brown cones that disperse the pollen

Mission Nuestra Senora de la Purisima Concepcion: The Orginal Plan in East Texas
December 10th 2011 19:41
Take for instance the Mission Nuestra Senora de la Purisima Concepcion built in East Texas in 1716. The missionaries traveled a great distance, over 400 miles, from their headquarters along the Rio Grande to set up this mission to serve the Haisain Indian tribe. The missionaries tried to establish this mission in East Texas only to learn that the Indians did not want to move to the mission. The Haisain tribes lived in small bands in small communities in the region. They did not want to abandon their community and move into a centrally located mission and as a result the missionaries found it extremely difficult to find Indians would accept the lifestyle that was needed to make the mission a success

Christmas Photos at the Botanical Gardens
December 2nd 2011 18:08
This year why not take a different approach? One great idea for holiday photos are taking the kids to your local botanical gardens and taking some photos amongst all the Christmas greenery. There are no long lines, no screaming kids and lots of time to take some great photos. True, there is usually a fee to tour the gardens but often children, especially the young ones are admitted free

Mission San Francisco Xavier de Najera
December 2nd 2011 17:42
In the process missionaries built 5 missions around the San Antonio including the most famous of the five, the Mission San Antonio de Valero. Little is known however that there was one other mission that was to be established in the San Antonio area that was to be a sub mission of San Antonio. This mission was named Mission San Francisco Xavier de Najera and it was to be a way station between Mission San Antonio and Mission San Jose. This mission was to be built at the request of the Chief of the Native American Sanas tribe. He and his 600 followers requested a mission be built for them as they did not want to be a part of either the San Antonio Mission or the San Jose Mission as they were in disputes with the tribes living at the those two missions

Take A Hike at Gorges State Park
October 23rd 2011 19:04
Gorges State Park is located along the Blue Ridge Escarpment, an area where five streams carry water to the ocean from the divide between the Tennessee Valley drainage and the Atlantic drainage. The upper reaches of the escarpment mountain streams gradually descend, but near the state line the water plunges over waterfalls and rushes through steep-walled gorges. With Gorges having such dramatic and rugged terrain secluded back country hiking is recommended for experience hikers only. For those who are into more casual hiking stretches of the Foothill Trail is much more to their liking and is a great way to get out and enjoy the Blue Ridge Escarpment and get up to and close with nature

The Fall Colors of the Upper Peninsula
September 16th 2011 00:09
All across the peninsula from the east to the west there is a never ending rainbow of autumn colors on display and visitors can pick any spot on the peninsula and enjoy the view. The Upper Peninsula of Michigan is surrounded by three of the Great Lakes; Lake Huron, Lake Michigan and Lake Superior and has many bluffs, out cropping and dramatic shorelines that all come into play to highlight the beauty of the fall colors.
