Sunset Turbo Arrow

Enjoyable evening making aerials of H.-P.'s Turbo Arrow. 

Claudia came along and used her iPhone to make videos of H.-P.'s break-aways. 

Arcus

      A roll cloud loomed above me this morning. Moving eastward, I managed to drive ahead of it, barely, driving at the posted speed limit of 70 MPH.  After finding a safe place to park, I had very little time to snap a couple more photos of it before it passed over me.

Saw sixty-three birds on Bolivar Island near Galveston with Glen Olsen.

A Chair at Millard's Crossing

Lera Millard Oxford (d. 1992) enjoyed collecting old things. Chairs, for example. And buildings, too, which she would transport from their original locations to her site outside Nacogdoches, Texas, and then fill with the things she enjoyed collecting.
