Walking Home

On our walks, I often snap a picture of FFP walking ahead of me. Here he is walking north on South Lamar beside the Zach Theatre with the skyline north of Lady Bird Lake looming to the right.

Ready for Lunch

These herons were scoping out the possibility of scoring a nice fish the other day near the boardwalk.

Color and Line

The bold house color and bold red chairs with an interesting shape combine with all the shadows and lines to make a pleasing abstract.

Reflection of Our Home

Before we moved downtown there was a low-slung and quite ugly music venue (which also had terrible seating, bathrooms, and acoustics) across the street. They tore it down (scraped the lot) and built a low-slung, not quite as ugly (but close) music venue with terrible seating, bathrooms, and acoustics that was finished shortly before we got here. Because some better music venues came online it was used for disruptive concerts where drug use was prevalent and the attendees often left the neighborhood a mess. It was torn down and a large office building was built which is about to open. Our building is reflected in its facade in this picture.

New Growth

This cactus outside a downtown restaurant was sprouting new growth and the color surprised me.

Ready the Rebar

With another high rise in the background, these workers ready the rebar for the pour of a column on another office building.

Smoked Meat

This guy was in the heart of downtown delivering firewood for smoked meat cooking at Lambert's Fancy BBQ.
