Cool drink

Found a new way to stay cool today. Just stand close as you shoot pictures of cold drinks. The chilly splash will cool anyone off. Makes a hell of a mess too.

Summer Storm

With the oppressive heat that every Texan equates to summer it can be difficult to think about anything else. Thanks to that heating though, we do get some massive evening thundershowers. When you end up in the right location you either get a gorgeous show of mother natures lighting capabilities or your lawn gets a soaking without your water bill going thru the roof. Either way you can not lose and it is all because of that oppressive afternoon heating. Guess I better stop griping and just look up more often.

New Door Gaurd

I think the summer rains have shifted the lives of the insects and animals as well as the plants in north Texas. Found this interesting creature in the bushes on the front porch. It is making me feel a little like the pig in Charlotte's web. I am not sure if I am allowed to head out that way.
