Hanging out with stand-up comedians Ron White and Alex Reymundo. Two great guys that I was lucky to meet while they were in West Texas, out promoting their Juan Tequilla!

Grand Central Station Market in New York City

2014-09-06T14:11:00.001-05:00

Grand Central Station Market is located at the Grand Central Train Station in New York City. These spices are at only one of the booths among so many wonderful ones. It's a great place for food lovers and a no miss for anyone visiting the Big Apple. If I lived there, I would peruse through the aisles on a regular basis. The butcher shops, fresh vegetables, cheese and spices are just awesome and the French saucisson sec is to die for!

Sandstorm

West Texas sandstorm

By day and by night the wind will blow in this arid vastness we call the West Texas desert. Sandstorms come and sandstorms go without any sense of pity or care for that which may lay in it's way!

Chicago airport

I make my way through the Chicago airport as I see others like me everywhere rushing along from gate to gate. The winter snow storm has people stranded in airports all over the northern United States.

Amid winter storm angst and butterfly jitters, nothing compares to that return trek home.

As a blanket of snow covers our Winter Wonderland, a peaceful and serene stillness lays adrift our otherwise busy human eyes.

West Texas Freeze

We had an ice storm in the desert that lasted for over three days and in November no less. Everything was frozen over!! Here is a little plant that was not spared!

This July 2013 Thunder or Buck Super Moon as it is called was in Aquarius. It was 12% larger and 26% brighter than a normal Full Moon and the last one we'll see this big until next August 2014. I took this picture with a 500 mm lens set up on a tripod. The bright light dominated the desert sky and it was so beautiful!

Horned Toad

2013-07-22T17:36:00.001-05:00

Out in the West Texas desert live these interesting looking creatures called Horned Frogs. They don't bite and are very well liked by most people who live here because they eat bugs. They are spiky and have a protective mechanism where they inflate themselves to twice their original size to look bigger and more offensive. They are preyed upon by hawks, roadrunners, snakes, lizards, dogs, wolves and coyotes. Some also shoot blood from their eyes. This blood travels a distance of up to three feet and confuses would be predators. It also contains a chemical which is noxious to dogs, wolves and coyotes. So, although they don't bite, you might want to refrain from picking one up lest it tries to "confuse" you!

San Jose mission in San Antonio, TX

2012-12-15T15:00:00.002-06:00

There is so much history right in the middle of Texas. This church is situated among the beautiful and scenic ruins of the San Jose y San Miguel de Aguayo mission in San Antonio. There are many missions there, but if you only had time to visit one of them, this would be it. The calm and peaceful grounds are surrounded by a wall and the whole place stretches out along San Antonio's mission trail. Also known as the Queen of missions, if you are in San Antonio and want to enjoy some of its history, don't miss this outstanding Spanish colonial mission.

Texas Beauty

2012-12-04T21:22:00.001-06:00

I have come to really like the desert and its plants. This Agave is typical of many others that grow just like it everywhere in the wild. They sit seemingly unnoticed, but yet they spread their beauty out with such majestic growth.
