- We're here on the southeast corner of Texas.
We are here at Sea Rim State Park,
about 10 miles west of Sabine Pass.
[gentle acoustic music]
We're a relatively small park.
- RIDER: I know, the water is going to eat you.
[laughter]
- NATHAN: We do have five miles of beach.
The majority of this park is marshland,
and a lot of people that come out here to enjoy the park,
enjoy either the beach or they get a chance to enjoy
experience the marsh environment.
[water splash from paddling]
[birds chirp]
The neat thing about the Gambusia Nature Trail,
is your just right above the water.
- BOY: Crab, crab, crab!!
- NATHAN: It's a wonderful way to experience the marshland
environment without getting your feet wet.
- BOY: Alligator, alligator, right here!
Baby alligator!
It's right here, you see em!
There's probably a mama nearby!
- BOY 2: Yeah, your right!
- I think it's really cool, I've never experienced
actually seeing an alligator in its natural habitat,
and it's really cool to actually see on in person!
[footsteps]
- It's easy, it's easily accessible,
and it's a nice long trail where you're really isolated
from the rest of the world.
And you don't realize that there is any civilization around.
And it's just a hidden gem I suppose you would call it!
[water splash from paddling]
- NATHAN: We have over 10 miles of paddling trails.
- KAYAKER: It's so pretty out here!
[water splash from paddling]
- NATHAN: There's different canals, lakes, small areas
that people can get out and explore on their own.
You get a chance to observe, be one with nature!
- KAYAKER: Ah, a fish jumped in my boat!!
- NATHAN: We're out here on Sea Rims east beach...
- Oh, I saw one!
- NATHAN: It's a wonderful spot to go crabbing.
I do have some chicken necks that are tied up
to the string here!
- RICKY: It's like fishing!
- What's on it!
Yuck.
- I didn't have any idea it would involve chicken.
I thought you would just cast a net, pull them in,
and it would be done!
[laughs]
- MATT: That's a crabbies!
- MARTY BODDIE: Uh oh, I think you got a bite!
You do, pull it in real slow!
Been in Southeast Texas 15 years, this is my first time!
Lookie there Matt!
- MATT: That's a keeper!
- Oh it's great, the kids are having a blast and we are too!
I think I'm having more fun than the kids!
[Crab grabs chicken neck]
- I got one!
I think!
Hazel, get it, get it, get it!
It's a big one?
- NICOLE: It is fun, I didn't know about it, and I don't think
a lot of people do know about it!
- Got ya little scoundrel!
- Oh, oh got it!
- NICOLE: Especially if you are into crabs, we have caught
so many crabs today!
- RICKY: You see it!
[splash]
Oh I got two!
- NATHAN: Two for one, how bout that!
- Yeah!
Look Dad I caught two!
[waves lapping]
- We come out here at least about every other weekend!
We just kinda grew up out here fishing!
- MRS. REYES: Oh you lost your bait baby!
- ROBERT: It's fun!
Family loves it!
My son loves it!
- R.J. REYES: Almost every day after work, he says,
"Come on were going fishing!"
I'm like, "OK, its fine with me!"
- ROBERT: Oh!
You really never know what you are going to catch out here!
Bull Red, coming in with it!
It was pretty shallow probably second sand bar!
Have to tag this one, this one's over 28!
All right!
- MRS. REYES: Mira!
[inspirational music]
- NATHAN: Sea Rim State Park is a park that not very many
people are aware of!
You're not going to hear all buzzing traffic
or anything like that, you are away from it all,
and you can come out here and enjoy, enjoy life!

Hi, I'm Heathcliff and this is Lions Ground.
Plano Police ask for help.
They are searching for the parents of this girl, a 4-year-old girl was found today by
Plano residents, Texas.
The name of this girl is Kimber, according to the police.
Plano residents found Kimber only between Legacy Drive and Chase Oaks Boulevard.
"Legacy is a busy road.
There are a lot of apartments and businesses in this area," said Plano Police Officer
David Tilley.
"It's not uncommon for children to wander out of the home while the parents are sleeping,"
said Officer Tilley.
"When they wake up, they will typically call us.
That's what we are hoping happens here."
Do you know this girl, call the Plano Police Department.
Phone number is in the video description.
Fortunately, the child is in safe hands.
Now waiting for the parents.
She was taken to a child advocacy center by Child Protective Services.

UT/TT Poll: In Texas, majority of Republicans still support Trump, unsure of temperament - Duration: 1:10.
In Trump's case, we have asked questions about leadership and empathy and
temperament and knowledge. And a couple things that are worth observing,
the first is that there is variance. So even though you have a public that's
exceptionally polarized, where Democrats really don't like much of anything about
Donald Trump, and Republicans have really rallied around him, especially in Texas, you do
get some variance. And he scores particularly poorly on temperament.
The other thing that's kind of interesting I think here is that when you
assume the leadership role, when you become president of the United States,
usually even presidents or presidential candidates who aren't considered
exceptionally knowledgeable, they tend to rise pretty quickly on the knowledge
items, how knowledgeable the candidate or the person is. We haven't seen much
movement on knowledgeable with respect to Trump. So a lot of people doubted that
he knew very much or knew a requisite amount to be president, and those
numbers haven't come up much. I think a lot of that is just because of his
performance so far as president. It's not just polarization, it's the particulars of his
performance that haven't allowed some of those people to come on board.

Adam Yablonski named 2017 Farmer of the Year by the Texas State Soil & Water Conservation Board - Duration: 2:57.
my name is Adam Yablonski welcome to Comanche Creek farms and ranch on behalf
of the Medina County Soil and Water Conservation District we are proud that
Adam Yablonski is our conservation farmer of the year and the state winner we grow
corn cotton grain sorghum oats sesame and cucumbers variety crops and we raise
some grass-fed beef and have a hunting operation there are many farmers in the
state of Texas and so on behalf of NRCS I would like to congratulate Adam with
comanche Creek farms for being the conservation farmer for 2017 that is a
true honor to have a great conservation farmer here in Medina County some of the
technical assistance that we provided here on the Comanche Creek Farms is
improving the irrigation water efficiency this land was historically
flood irrigated and so efficiencies on that may only get to 50 to 60 percent
efficiency and one of the improvements that have been made over over the years
and through conservation planning is to implement micro irrigation drip system
that can improve that efficiency to over 90% efficient on that irrigation water
the Comanche Creek Farm is a great forum it's beautiful out here
you can have the diversity of the hill country along with the flat farmland and
the flat farmland moves up into the hill country and there's plenty of grass out
here for his long horn cattle to graze and he rose along with his corn and
cotton and then he also grows some wheat and oats Adam has always been on the
forefront of using technologies to be able to incorporate that into the AG
operation and one of those that he's recently have has been working with is
using drones and he uses that to be able to do scouting over his fields to be
able to look at how the moisture control if he's doing a good job with irrigating
it properly can use that to scout for pests or other diseases and problems
that might be going on in those crops so being able to use that drone out here is
a advantage that adam has implemented using innovative
technologies we hear Comanche farms are really proud to receive this award it's
a true honor and a lot through the help of the local spoke Water Conservation
District in the NRCS that were able to do what we did to receive this award
