Wandering the Web

We went to the West Texas Food Bank’s fundraiser last night, partaking of food from a variety of restaurants (including red curry buffalo from Zucchi’s), watching (but not participating) in a sometimes listless auction of goods ranging from a rocking chair to a telescope, and listening to the current incarnation of The Lovin’ Spoonful.

The Mist

As we headed out to breakfast this morning, we noticed a bit of fog and mist in some of the low-lying areas and around the golf course across the pasture, but it wasn’t until we turned onto “A” Street that we saw this striking bit of meteorological phenomena: This line of mist or fog stretched… Continue reading The Mist
