Sunset

If you could get past the fact that it was over 100 degrees at 8:00 p.m., it was a nice night and the sunset was amazing.

Holding On!

If this little guy thought he was camouflaged he should take a look in the mirror - needs another color plant, seems to me.

Ribbon Winner!

I was honored to receive a second-place ribbon in the professional color photography category in the "On My Own Time" art show through American Airlines, organized by the Business Council for the Arts. Lots of great competition and beautiful artwork by AA employees, retirees and spouses. My ribbon-winning entry:

House of Blues

We had a fun time at the House of Blues Tuesday night hearing about Texas Motor Speedway's 2011 schedule with some new and innovative changes. Then a concert by Goo Goo Dolls.

Abandoned

We found this poor little trailer stuck in the woods on one of our travels. Poor little guy left alone to rot.

Mustang

Another one of my favorite subjects!

They should build an airport ...

Somebody who thinks he's a comedian was visiting us shortly after we moved to the DFW area. Noticing the very active airplane traffic overhead, he said, "There are so many airplanes here, they should build an airport!" I seem to never tire of looking at them. I was waiting at Founders Plaza to pick up my daughter in the middle of a storm - this 777 landed in the rain, wonder where it came from.

Little Critters

Even in the heat of the early evening, it was fun walking in the woods and noticing the tiniest life forms. We also watched dozens of white egrets and blue heron soar in to roost over the beaver pond.

Cafe Du Luxe

Wonderful evening of music, coffee and wine at Cafe Du Luxe in Denton. Eclectic Enclave entertained and it was fun to sit back and watch people look at my photos.

Hiding!

Almost walked right by this little guy while exploring the boardwalk at LLELA and watching the drama of a stormy sky unfolding. Looks like he was all set for the night.

Antique Store

One of the sights on the Denton square - through the front window of an antique store. I liked the carving on the wooden mantels and the glow of the lamp.

Chris in PVD

While in New England last month we had the rare opportunity to watch our son pilot his plane overhead while landing in Providence, Rhode Island. Fortunately he was on time and that particular airport isn't exactly as busy as Chicago O'Hare and only has one runway so it wasn't hard to pick out the right United Express jet. Had a nice lunch together, then we headed back to DFW and he headed ... somewhere.
