Train BNSF

Stockyards

Turns out that the 'running of the bulls' is at 4 and we got there at 5...will try again this fall when it isn't a bazillion degrees outside.

Old Station No. 5

Pipe Organ

Church Lights

From Broadway Baptist Church.

Broadway Baptist Church

Found a really cool church down town and they let us come in to take pictures.  Even with the lights on I wish I would have had a tripod, but a few of the pictures turned out ok.

Peach-a-palooza!

Prioritized Peaches

Peach Pile

Peach Parts

Peach Pie

(if you haven't figured it out yet, I have a totally lame sense of humor)

It's a peachstravaganza!

The Tweedles

Horse's Patooty ....

My husband has notified me that since I drive a BMW now, I am (and I quote) a horse's patooty wanger.  On the other hand, I was in a 20+ year old car for so long that I really like taking pictures of the new kid and well, might as well post them right?

and

Thistles

More Water Weeds

Longhorn

Sunset Fence

Roving the countryside looking for photographs.  Not quite the vantage point I was hoping for, but I wasn't up for taking on the longhorns.

The last bit of sunset

It's dry in Texas

Great, good, bad, or awful.  I can't decide.

Fort Worth Castle

Iced happiness

Excuse the remnant flour on the counter...Lavender Earl Grey  :)

More sky...

Couldn't resist posting another one of the morning sun through the clouds.  Pulled off of the side of the highway for this one :-D.  I have to admit that the Tyndall effect is one of my favorite natural images and much (much!) easier to find than a good rainbow.

Performance Hall...aka lost in the downtown

I think next time I will try a landscape of this shot to provide better perspective; but the light and angel/trumpet thing give this one enough pizzaz for me to post it anyways.

No Idea

Random sign in NW Fort Worth.  The sign above it is for John Deere so...ya...no idea.

The Caravan Inn

I need to start carrying a camera with me, had to go back later to get a pic of the sign.

Key Limes

First attempt at key lime pie.  Have two conclusions so far.
1)  The whole concept of squeezing such tiny fruit for their juice was clearly devised by a severely sadistic person.
2)  I am in love with key lime pie.

Church

Struggled a lot with the light and composition on this one.  In the end part of my problem appears to be that my manual white balance was still on flash from taking pictures of the dogs.  Another part of my problem was that I wasn't patient enough to wait for the sky to finish brightening up which would have given me much richer blues agains the cream stone.

Woke up to a great early morning...well for taking pictures

The moose are back in town...whoa-o-o-oa

As American as...Cheesecake

UNT Health Science Center (Parking Garage)

Happy Independence Day!

Random Finds on the New Car

So I finally upgraded from a 1990 ghetto-mobile to a ... well much newer model.  While digging around and poking buttons we found out that apparently it comes with a logo-ed rechargeable flashlight.  LOL.
