the focus shifted to the groom
It was a damp and chilly day for a wedding party to spend a long time outside getting photos made.
And for some reason, I found great enjoyment in the few moments when the photographers turned the cameras toward the groom, leaving the bride momentarily not the center of attention.

Y’all. This place.
It’s a combination mercantile, bar, cafe, and church (and that’s just the things I know about). The bartender, Jennifer, told me that I’d missed the church service earlier that day. I was pretty sure it was a joke, and I was willing to go along with it. She said they had 2-for-1 bloody marys during church. Still seemed like a joke. She told me that day four people had been baptized in the river (which was just across the road). And that’s when it sort of started to seem like maybe it wasn’t a joke.
But honestly, I’m still not sure.
Oh, and I can’t believe I nearly forgot to mention that the place hosts the Texas Testicle Festival. Jennifer can probably give you more details.

Maybe it’s just the way my brain works, but that pvc pipe working its way up the passageway and into the darkness feels rather umbilical.
Additionally, I don’t want to admit to how many different ways I tried to spell “umbilical” before I got it right. I think there might be something wrong with my keyboard.

These concrete cherubs were doing hard work holding up one end of a bench. Maybe their task was made easier by the thin spider web that connected them.
