My last pics of Dallas, Water and Art.

After almost 10 years of living in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, going to school at UT Arlington, I am back in my home country Guatemala. It was a wonderful experience and I learned to appreciate the city and its people. It is a great place to live, have a life and enjoy with family and friends.

These are the last pics I took last July around downtown Dallas. I have around 150 so will upload them a few everyday to keep the thread alive, lol. I hope you enjoy them and hopefully I will be able to return soon.

Keep on with the great urban development in Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington, Irving, Plano, Frisco, and all the nice cities in the Metroplex.



City Hall Plaza

Beautiful pictures but how did you catch them? You haven't been greeted by the brawny black guardian?
I've been able to put just a foot on BoA ground before being invited to leave...
