We spotted these beautiful wildflowers, Texas Bluebonnet and Indian Paintbrush flowers, on the side of the highway during our recent road trip.
Took this shot this morning behind the Pilot truckstop in Von Ormey, TX. The photo I took of the horses was just about 100 yards to the left of this small lake. Texas is so green this year, lots of rain.
This is the Texas Pie Company in Kyle, Texas. And, this is where I picked up my cherry pie. Of course they had more than cherry pie. They even had real food. I didn't try any of that..:) I mean, who goes to a pie company to order something else..:)
Wednesday is going to be the first day of summer and the longest day of the year. I plan on staying inside all day..:) I take that back, I have to go to the grocery store

Here's an image from my last trip to Texas to shoot the Cypress Swamp. The sky was pretty ugly white in this image, so I tried the new Adobe sky replacement. It's like magic and it dramatically improved the image. I have so much to be thankful for and feel very luck. Lots to look forward to including seeing and spending time with friends and sharing our modern style of friendship with those I only know on social media. Happy Thanksgiving.

I went to Austin early Sunday morning to get some shots of downtown, thinking who's going to be up that early on Sunday morning. Well, more people than I thought. OK, sure, Congress Ave is a serious main street in Austin, I get it. State capitol and all. Anyway, it took several attempts to get this shot without headlights and taillights. And, of course I had to get out of the road several times, there was that..;) Also, it seemed like where ever I parked was where someone needed to be, like a delivery truck or something. Than there was this couple that turned around and parked behind me, just to watch me. I didn't really get that.
Update on the train. There is a train museum in Temple and the little train is to promote awareness to the children. So, there you go..;)
