Description: Early Corpus Christi teams played in various leagues under differing monikers.

The Corpus Christi Seahawks were members of the Gulf Coast League in 1926, Texas Valley League in 1927 and 1928 and Rio Grande Valley League in 1931. The Corpus Christi Spudders played in the 1938 Texas Valley League.
Description: I was inspired to do this watercolor painting of some pelicans resting on some piers after seeing such scenes in the southern states over the years. This painting is part of my Florida watercolor collection. Three pelicans are perched on weathered wooden posts against a backdrop of warm, earthy tones. The scene captures a serene sunset, highlighting the birds' distinctive plumage.
