The Seaholm Power Plant sits on an eight-acre site on the north shore of Town Lake in Austin, Texas. The plant no longer generates power for the City. Private sector groups have recommended that Seaholm be converted to civic or cultural uses. In 1991, the City Council resolved to preserve Seaholm for public use after it is decommissioned.

Inks Lake State Park is located adjacent to Inks Lake on the Colorado River and the Highland Lakes chain. If you look closely at the granite, you will see areas that are covered in flaky or crust-like, yellow-green to green patches. This is lichen, which are interesting organisms that literally eat stone, turning rock into dirt. The lichen produces a chemical that breaks down the rock and over many years produces enough soil for other organisms to grow.

Located 12 miles west of Babb, MT in the northeast corner of Glacier National Park and 1 mile from Swiftcurrent Motor Inn, Many Glacier Hotel is located in the “Switzerland of North America”.

Many Glacier Hotel boasts a true Swiss atmosphere with alpine beauty that surrounds the five-story building.
