Answer: Buffalo Falls at Memory Park
The buffalo is a giant life sized statue that watches over Memory Falls. It reminds us of the animal that used to roam wild in this area and other parts of our country.
Memory Park is a community project coordinated by the Rotary Club of Lake Conroe, in conjunction with different community organizations and Montgomery County. Materials and plants have been donated for the park and various areas of the park have been constructed by different service organizations.
Memory Park is alive with native and naturalized Texas trees and plants, and there are walking trails, benches for relaxing, pavilions, a fountain, bridges, rainwater projects, a duck nesting area, specialized gardens, a naturalized area and waterfalls surrounding a large pond. The park contains a Shakespeare garden featuring a bust of the bard, signage in braille donated by the Lions Club, and various statues including the Honor Flight Eagle dedicated to the local veterans of World War II. Many of the plants and items in the park have been purchased and donated by families in memory of their loved ones.
Memory Park is so beautiful!! We will definitely be going back to visit! So relaxing and peaceful! We still haven't caught up to the Gus-man but I'm sure we're getting close! He has to be worn out by now! I saw some paw prints in the mud of the little pond. The librarian gave me another riddle to solve - so let's see where Mr. Adventurous takes us next!
