That's My World! Tuesday

 On the way home from Texas my wife and I stopped at a really flea market outside Waco to stretch our legs and discovered this very cool Museum in the back of the building!

Road Trip

My wife and I wandered down to Austin Texas this week to visit our daughter and son-in-law. We spent a beautiful morning out at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. Even though its even a bit early for Texas wildflowers the famous Texas Bluebonnets were starting and others such as Tall Spiderwort.

 There are visitor centers, gardens,  an art gallery and lots of trails to enjoy here.

Some of the above photos are by my wife, a painter by nature shes taking to a camera really well.

Out and about again

 This past winter left a few holes in our lives here at the place. It also seemed destined to freeze our toes and hearts at the same time. I finally have gotten around to taking my camera on walks and rides again, a welcome companion.

 Spring is here and Ive seen the Turkey vultures return from the south, just behind the Robins who have staked out little turfs in our pasture. Ive been fishing for crappie and seeing Cedar Waxwings in the you guessed it, the cedars!

We have a new face around here, Cleatus a mostly Basset Hound rescue, whose bark is deep and conjures up visions of riders following large packs of hounds. Every time he barks I say to my wife "don't ya love that bark? Isn't that a great bark?" She smiles and says "yes it is".
