Texas View

On my way back from Kerrville, TX, I stopped

at one of the rest areas to take in the views.

No wonder they call it the Texas hill-country :)

I was able to enjoy the bit of sunshine today,

while walking along this path.

It was a nice break from the

"drive, drive, drive"

mentality.

Larger than Reality

Going through some of my photos, I came across this set from October 2009.

At that time, we were driving around, looking at the rising waters at the nearby creek from the recent rains. Off the main road, into a newer subdivision, we saw a huge sculpture looming near the entrance.

Driving closer, we saw it was a deer made of metal parts. Getting out of the suburban, I walked around it, taking photos, looking for any info on how or why this subdivision had taken in this huge animal.

Having a larger than life "pet" seems to be catching on -

Check out this site that a friend of mine created when she

took in an orphaned giant rooster!
