No reflection (no mirror)

If there were a mirror here, I wonder if it would have a crack to match (I almost said “mirror”!) the one on the wall?

Sotol reflections

Sometimes, the best views are behind you.

Like this.

(Sotol, in this case refers to a kind of cactus. Not a beverage that’s related to tequila. I just wanted to clear that up.)

Finished

Someone used a giant trowel to apply the finish coat to this wall!

You can see it for yourself, the next time you’re in Eden. Eden, Texas, I mean. It’s in the alley right behind Venison World which is a good spot to get some elk or venison jerky. If you’re into that sort of thing.

Deepening shadows

This building is under renovation – one of these days, it’ll be office space for Hockley County.

I happen to know the architect* for the project, and was able to get a tour one afternoon. Of course, the tour wasn’t planned in advance or anything like that**, so the only camera I had with me was the one on my phone. Which is better than no camera at all, of course. And the phone did a great job of capturing the way the shadows deepened in waves across that far wall.

* Because I’m married to him.
** Even though I am licensed planner! (Don’t tell the American Institute of Certified Planners – I’d hate for them to revoke my license!)

Screened

The window screens on this building are raveling away in a very nice fashion.
