This project was important to me because I grew up around, worked in, and played in the Anahuac NWR.. It is a beautiful place that was hit hard by Hurricane Ike. It was a privilege to work with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to restore this natural beauty and ensure that future generations can have the same experiences I had growing up and discovering the uniqueness of the Texas coast.
