🏑 TAKE A PEEK INSIDE! πŸ‘€

This week's house takes us to Dayton, where we found a custom home tucked away on 8 wooded acres β€” and there's a lot more here than you might expect!

We're talking 3,457 square feet, two primary suites, beautiful custom details, a finished studio above the garage, a barn/shop and plenty of room to spread out.

But we're not showing you everything here. πŸ˜‰ You'll have to Take a Peek Inside to see the rest!

🏘️ Did you know the Baytown Nature Center was once a neighborhood where more than 400 families lived?

It was called Brownwood β€” and what happened there is one of the most dramatic examples of land subsidence in the Houston area.

The ground beneath parts of Southeast Texas has been sinking for decades. But why? And what caused Brownwood to eventually disappear?

This week, we're taking a look at two connected stories β€” what's happening beneath the Houston area today and the fascinating local history of Brownwood, including its connection to Hurricane Carla and Hurricane Alicia.

If you've lived around Baytown for years, you may remember Brownwood. If you're newer to the area, you may be surprised by what's underneath the place we now know as the Baytown Nature Center.

πŸ‘‡ Read both stories and see the video showing what happened to Brownwood.

πŸ‘€πŸ΄ TAKE A PEEK INSIDE!

Every now and then, we come across a property that's just too interesting not to share β€” and this one definitely qualifies.

Tucked away on 15 acres in La Porte is a $2.5 million property with a home, barns, a covered riding arena, ponds and extensive equestrian facilities.

But here's the part that made us stop and look twice...

One of the ponds is dedicated to equine therapy. πŸŽπŸ’¦

Yep β€” a pond for the horses!

We've got a peek at this unusual property in today's Baytown Local News & Events. Wait until you see what all is hiding behind those gates.

🐦 A childhood love of birds has come full circle in Baytown.

William Jones grew up here, and his interest in birds and nature began while attending Baytown’s Wade Into Wetlands summer science camps. Today, he’s helping others connect with the natural spaces that first inspired him β€” just as the City of Baytown - Government works toward becoming a certified Bird City Texas community. 🌿🐦

It’s a great local story about how something discovered as a child can grow into a lifelong passion β€” and ultimately give something back to the community.

We love seeing Baytown Parks and Recreation, Baytown Nature Center, and Visit Baytown TX helping put Baytown’s natural side in the spotlight. πŸ’™

πŸŽ“ What does Hollywood have to do with a fifth-grade classroom in Mont Belvieu? Quite a bit, as it turns out!

Barbers Hill ISD is giving students an early look at future careers by connecting classroom learning with professionals working in the real world β€” from special effects to energy conservation, finance and more.

We took a closer look at how Barbers Hill ISD is helping students discover what might be possible beyond the classroom. πŸ‘

This week’s Take a Peek Inside takes us to a property with a little bit of everything β€” more than 5 acres, a pool, covered patios, a firepit, a greenhouse, a large pavilion and even a three-bay shop with its own bathroom and storage loft.

And, of course, there’s a pretty nice house in the middle of all that, too. πŸ˜„

🏒✨ A new chapter is beginning in La Porte!

The brand-new La Porte City Hall officially opens for business Monday, August 31st, and while the building may be new, residents won't have to remember a new address β€” it's still at 604 W. Fairmont Parkway, right next door to the previous facility.

Congratulations to City Of La Porte on the new City Hall! πŸŽ‰

And the celebration isn't over yet. The community will get its chance to take a look inside during the Grand Opening Celebration on September 14, complete with a ribbon-cutting, guided tours and even a little cake. πŸ°βœ‚οΈ

A beautiful new home for city business β€” and an exciting milestone for La Porte!

🐾 Happy National Dog Day, Greater Baytown! 🐢❀️

Today seems like the perfect day to give a little extra love to the dogs still waiting for someone to call their own.

Our local animal shelters work every day to care for animals, reunite lost pets with their families, and help dogs like Almond and Kujo find the homes they deserve.

So today, we're sending a big THANK YOU to the people who care for these animals β€” and a little extra love to every four-legged resident still waiting for their person. πŸΎπŸ’™

If you've been thinking about adopting or fostering, maybe National Dog Day is the day to take a look. And if you can't adopt, a share might help the right person see the right dog.

🐢 City of Baytown Animal Services
🐢 City Of La Porte, TX Adoption Center & Animal Shelter
🐢 Mont Belvieu Animal Shelter

Local shelters. Local dogs. Local love. ❀️🐾
πŸ‘‡ Meet Almond & Kujo and see how you can support our local shelters in today’s National Dog Day feature:
