Gulf of Mexico

These posts are part of some type of barrier that will be placed in front of the homes that are built along the Gulf of Mexico in Galveston. I didn't take the photo 'cause I think posts are cool, I was just drawn into the dark skies and the scene itself. And no I don't have swine flu.

Waterfall

This is from San Antonio just like the last post. San Antonio has a lot of water downtown due to a river that runs through it.

Sweet Shades

I spotted this Chihuahua with sunglasses in San Antonio. The lady that owned the dog said she bought the glasses from New York City. They're funny glasses but what gets me is that they're clear. They should at least be coated with some type of UV for the dog's eyes.

Market Day

This was down Airline Drive in Houston (hispanic district) where one of the major markets are in town. It's sort of like the Sam's Club of farmer's markets. The difference is that when you're done shopping you can get lots of food for about $10 rather than $100. I say this because instead of buying a dozen eggs for $2, you can get 30 eggs for $2. Also, they sell red peppers in quantities of six. Also $2. You get the idea. Anyway, this photo is from that place.

Tree

This was from a drive I took the other day just outside of Houston.

Lockhart

This was at Black's BBQ, a restaurant in Lockhart, TX that has been family owned since 1932. Texas legislature actually passed a proclamation naming Lockhart the "Barbecue Capital of Texas" so it's no surprise that the food was indescribably good.

Church Parking

This is a small church I saw while driving through Hempstead, TX.

Coke

I'm not much of a pop ('soda' as they say here) guy but it's been a while since I've seen Coke in a bottle so I had to get one. Down here they come from Mexico and...fun fact- they're supposed to be good because they're made with real sugar cane instead of high fructose corn syrup.

San Antonio

Along a river in San Antonio.

The Alamo

Last weekend Moni's parents, her and I visited the Alamo in San Antonio and this is from that. The photo was taken right outside the gift shop.
