Hope everyone has a good weekend, be well, be happy, and keep your chin up!

 

 

This post goes out to a wonderful person whom I respect very, very much. This is for country_cinderella...

 

 

Thought I would post a few street photos for everyone. More on flickr...

 

This dapper gentleman was sitting at the Plaza intent on really examining his lottery card. Don't think he won...

 

 

At the Alamo, (I'm sure you'll recognize the huge white-d out area?),[just joking, done for effect] during San Antonio's founders day. A day they set aside for  re-enactment (and remembering) the founding of our city.

 

 

Caught along the Riverwalk, just boys and beer and big hats waiting for the college game...

 

 

Caught by surprise...

 

Waiting to surprise...

 

And finally, an abstract...peeling paint and layered literature.

Have a good week everyone :-)

I had to go downtown to get a picture for Nikki...Nikki, hope you like this one, miss you...

 

 

Emjay, no, can't forget you...this is for you:

 

butterflyeffect-I still read your blog, still feel your pain, and still my heart becomes when I share with you the moment of your pictures. Missing you, sending a dragonfly your way....

 

 

magnifika-missing you. Enjoyed the Kobe pictures and the night time jazz...a flower for you. Be of good cheer :-)

 

 

Goddess-hard to find a pic you haven't commented over on flickr, thought you might get a kick out of this one :-)

 

Apolline-this picture needs a person, reminding me that I miss my friends. For you...

 

And to all my friends on Vox, from a lonely butterfly...

Raymond

Hope everyone's doing well...missing you :-)

Apologies to all for being such a lousy neighbor. Have been busy, going out every day taking pictures...Ah, well the bus pass was good but it's a new month...

Let me give you a sample of what I've been doing...

On Sept 3, the Tea Party Express came to San Antonio...

 

And of course the television camera crews came...

 

And the people carried signs...

 

And more signs...

 

And some of the signs were big...

 

And some were funny...

 

And the people came dressed for protest...

 

And the people wore the most interesting hats...

 

And the people wore the most interesting masks...

 

And there was movement...

 

And there was discussion...

 

 

And there was protest...

 

 

And Elvis was there...

 

And there were pictures taken that they might remember the day they stood up for what they believed. The day they lifted up their voices that the government might hear and remember that Tea Party.

 

And the Tea Party climbed back on their bus and left for other cities, other states along the superslab.

 

This was a Tea Party, American style.

Thursday, Sept the third, in the year of our Lord, two thousand nine. From San Antonio, Texas...Home of the Alamo.

 

Oh, and did I mention...that Elvis was there?

 

 

...and as always, there's more on flickr...

And for a touch of the funny,

 

And for a bit of humour...
