Walk southeast to Lincoln Park. This park sits right next to the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley and offers a stone's throw view toward the U.S.-Mexico border. It is a great spot to find a quiet bench or picnic area before the light changes.

Watch the sun set toward the WSW. The late afternoon golden light will wash over the park and the nearby resaca, providing a calm backdrop to enjoy your drink.
