Non-rainy, dry morning

This was taken at the same time as yesterday's picture, but looks totally different.

Rainy, wet morning

This was my view of the mountains this morning. I love days like this! Too bad I have to spend all day inside.

Images at a rest stop.

I have always thought this rest stop on I10 was very nice. So I snapped a few pics with my cell phone camera and, using free software on my phone, quickly threw together this collage. It is amazing what you can do on cell phones these days.

Tower of Power

More photo editing fun.

Refinery

Just driving along, taking pictures of the mundane and then editing with my free phone apps!

Apartment Name

I found another one!

Renaissance Faire Costumes

These are the patterns Jenna and I picked for our Ren Faire costumes.  I'm sure the wench costume won't look the same on me as it does on the model, but I am going to give it a try anyway. And Jenna is planning on using the steampunk skirt on the left with the corset and blouse on the right. We are going to all use a paid theme this year, all the guys are actually going to wear kilts! And us girls are going to us matching plaid on our costumes. I am going to Jake my best out If the plaud and Jenna's skirt out of the plaid. Still not sure what Joy Anna is going to do because she keeps changing her mind. :-)

More Lady of Guadalupe displays

Here are some more "Our Lady of Guadalupe" murals/shrines I have found around town.

Lookin' good in El Paso

The Metroman sign says we've got you covered, but they don't have their mannequin covered very well.

Cross Stitch

I hadn't worked on my lunchtime project in awhile, but I am today! This was something I started when we were told we could no longer exercise in the building at lunch time. I called it my "Since I am no longer allowed to work out here at lunch time project". ;-)

Stormy skies

Our Lady of Guadalupe at Gadsden

As promised quite awhile back, here is another one. This "Our Lady" mural is at Gadsden High School in Anthony, NM.

Gardening Fairies

I just recently added some fairies to my fairy garden. They were on clearance at hobby lobby a couple of weeks ago. You know, once it hits about July, you can Hardly find any summer stuff anywhere!

My plants

I was working with my plants this morning and decided to take a few pics. This is my favorite area in my yard!

Yet another one bites the dust.

Apartment Name Art?

I love getting pictures of old signs and other things before they disappear. I pass by these apartments quite a lot and I just love the "font" they used, although when these apartments were built I don't imagine it would ever have been called a font.

Smitty's no more :-[

Another one bites the dust

I work very near this place, so last week,  I drove by at lunch time and got a picture of their sign. I love the way they incorporated their old-style sign into the totally remodeled shopping center. Unfortunately, I drove by yesterday and there is a "For Lease" banner hanging over it. They have been in business since 1954. That is quite a run! I just wonder what will happen to their old sign. ...

PlayTime! Or RestTime! ?
