A better recreational way of enjoying the life in Aggieland

As being a member of Texas Aggies and been living in College Station for more than 1.5 years, I have already explored the amusement and attractive nature of Brazos Valley. One of my favorite places in Aggieland is The Lake Bryan. Located 5 miles west of Bryan, the lake serves as a coolant reservoid of the power plant. The area is surrounded by hundreds of live oaks. It is one of the resting spots of many migrating birds including green headed duck (Anas platyrhynchos). Moreover, the lake is the home of a number of different fish species such as catfish, crappie and sunfish.

The lake is used for recreational and musical events. There is a restaurant by the lake. Especially I recommend to go there and grab a beer while observing the sunset over the lake and the dalliance of tree shadows on the water.

There is also a human-made beach over the lake. I saw lots of people come to relax, sunbath and swim in the summer, esspecially at the weekends. Many people visit the lake only one day, but there is always a possibility of camping near the lake. Some bring their RVs and enjoy the nature whithout concede of the luxury. If you are one of those camping fans, then you need the following list of equipments:
