 This driver was entertaining all of us with his artistic skills the other day during a light flurry of snow.

Fancy cars!


 These car were assembled for a photo session on a recent afternoon at the parking garage across from us.

Old Pal

Old Pal -- equal parts Campari, dry vermouth, and rye. Tasty on a winter's night.

Love these signs


 The one on the left especially. Maybe the right ones refers to some ladies who live in the house.

Eastwoods Park


 Eastwoods Park is a haven just north of the University of Texas. Here you see my partner in life walking through it on a recent sunny afternoon.

Coke signs stolen!

Two of the three Coca-Cola signs on this historic Austin drug store were stolen during the night a few weeks ago. The owner took the third one down because she was fearful they would come for it as well.

Express yourself! Have at it!



We saw this nice box of chalk on an east Austin sidewalk the other day -- just waiting for people of any age to make their thoughts known.

Now that took some work!


 These folks put in some sweat equity to get those leaves sacked up! Nice job!

Not sure about this, but liked it.



We wondered if we were on camera while looking at this installation. That "Hi, How Are You" is an iconic Austin image.

Hope that they find her!


 Pets are so important -- especially in this weird time. These people really want to get their cat back!

A worthwhile thing to do after school


 I hope that some kids try these classes out -- being able to take good photos is a nice skill to have.

Magic Median Mystery Tour


Residents of this cul-de-sac have a sweet gathering place that they maintain in their midst. I wonder what they put in that violet mail box.

One weird tree



It was hard to tell if this was a tree or a piece of sculpture. We love our walks around town.

Walking yields wonders

 

In Austin, you will find wonderful hand-painted signs like this one in people's yards. I love the sentiment. A nice thought for the new year.

Something to remember 2020 by


Each of these markers represents a death in Texas from the COVID virus. It is a horrible story, but the main one, of this horrible year that is in our rear view mirror. We hope that life gets better in 2021.
