I see more state flags flown in Texas than any other state that I've visited. That's pretty cool. This US Flag and Texas Flag are both very large. They're located in front of the Taste of Texas Restaurant next to the Katy Freeway (I-10) in Houston. To gain some perspective, those are the tops of trees at the bottom of the frame. (Excellent restaurant, by the way).
A great looking two-tone VW Beetle at the gathering at Elsham Hall not that far from Scunthorpe this weekend. There's a lot of hanging around at these events - waiting for people to move out the way while you're taking photos. I know that sounds cheeky, but I'm only at these events for photos.....afterall, it's what I do.
Sambrook's Brewery is based in Battersea, South London, nestled between the River Wandle and Battersea Power Station. Sambrook's use the finest ingredients to create hand crafted ales.
Wandle (4.2%) is named after the Thame tributary flowing through South West London and is the brewery's flagship beer first brewed in 2008.
Brewed using only English malt & hops, this golden amber ale is extremely quaffable and an ideal accompaniment to light dishes such as fish or chicken.
All notes from the bottle.
It is very nice!!!
There was a temporary palace of Toshogu, is the cedar of large tree
But it is solemn and subtle and profound feeling?
Two trees stand atop a promontory above a foggy Pacific Ocean view, Point Lobos.
This photograph, the final in a set I’ve shared recently, comes from a half-day visit to Point Lobos one foggy late-July morning. For is always fun, but in this case it was extra special. California suffered through some extremely hot weather back in July, and I headed to the coast to try to find some relief. I found it! While the temperatures back home were heading well into the upper nineties, here along the coast it was in the upper fifties under the overcast. I spent the morning and early afternoon wandering through the park.
These trees are Monterey cypresses, native to this locale along the rugged coast. Here they grow along the tops of cliffs that drop steeply into the ocean. This promontory is along the north shore of Point Lobos where some of the higher cliffs are found. While the fog here was high enough to reveal the trees, a short distance offshore it was right on the water.

This should cool everyone off just a bit on such a hot summer day(s)! Amtrak No. 8, the Empire Builder, crosses the infamous Two Medicine Bridge at East Glacier, Montana, surrounded by the stark beauty of a winter wonderland on March 3, 1989. It was so cold on this trip that a six-pack of Dr. Pepper froze overnight on the floor behind the front seats of the rental car. We didn’t realize it until one of the cans blew up and sent brown slush everywhere. We got rid of the rest of those “Dr. Pepper grenades” as soon as we could . . . ah, the joys of photographing trains in winter.
All it will take is a collection of stitched-together bison hides and a central fire-pit and these, two-of-a-kind, still under construction,
"room with a view" condos can be yours if you act quickly. No pesky lawn to mow. Only lovely wildflowers. The Mission Mountains in your backyard. A fresh water-source in the side yard. Who do you know who has a view-field anywhere near as magnificent as this homesite has? As much privacy as this one
has? The peace and serenity? And where are the troublesome neighbors? Nowhere to be seen, that's where? Do not hesitate, home-shoppers. This one won't last ! Lease to own, own to lease. We are entertaining all serious offers. Short term leasing available. And, as an extra incentive, all home tours feature free balloons for the kiddies.
I made this capture just outside the Ninepipes Museum of Early Montana in Charlo, about 50 miles north of Missoula and just shy of the lovely town of Polson on the shores of Flathead Lake.
What kid hasn't fallen in love with teepees once or twice in his life. And what respectable senior citizen doesn't still have a goodly amount of kid in him?
(A free hot tip: Do make sure to visit the Museum here right
on Route 93. I highly recommend it. It is one of the best
Native American museums in the west and also features some marvelous fine art, very unique cards, gifts and jewelry. Do tell
Jo that Dennis says hello. And ask for a free night in the teepee).
In the taproom, at...
Sarasota (Bee Ridge), Florida.

▶ A diamond in the rough: a brewery and taproom in an industrial park. Recommended to me by 'craft' beer professionals on Facebook. Sometimes, the interwebs do deliver on their promise.

"English Export Stout"
6.9% alcohol
☞ "Deeply roasty, with a hypnotic darkness and scary drinkability. Monsters covet and hoard the British malt notes of espresso, & light toffee."
☞ Me: Lovely British Maris Otter malt for base; sapid but not overdone treacle from dark malts; alcoholic slap at end dries the finish.
▶ Calusa Ringstrasse (right)
"Vienna-style Lager"
5.5% alcohol
☞ "A brilliant clarity of autumnal copper reveals the toasted, full character of the finest continental malt and crisp finish of noble hops.
☞ Me: Not "brilliantly" clear, but a well-executed lager nonetheless, expressing lightly toasted crackers, an elegant (not fruity) sweet middle, and, indeed, a crisp finish.

Yesterday was a perfect day! My son, maybe and I made a great walk, took a lot of photo's, the sun was sinning...
