The hurricane took what it wanted
On August 26, 2017, about 25 miles from right here, Hurricane Harvey made landfall. It was a Category 4 storm, and is tied with Hurricane Katrina as the costliest tropical cyclone on record.
And here we are, closing in on two years after the storm, and damage is still visible across a wide swath of South Texas.

Town’s simple rhythms
I stopped to get some photos of a car wash (I always think I’ll like photos of car washes, but to date I haven’t actually made any that are bloggable.) It had rained earlier in the day, and that nice puddle caught my attention, and then I saw the reflection of all that stuff.
And the car wash photos? I’ll just say you won’t see them here.

It’s like we were watching each other
It was a standoff between the security camera and me. No word on who won, but it was probably neither of us.
Tomorrow, we’ll be moving along to South Texas. Plan accordingly.

The Night Shop
Maybe you’re getting tired of all these photos from California. Good news (if you are): there’s only one more after this one. You’ve made it through!

Letter Box
And here we have another example of my looking inside something, or at least letting my camera look around and capture what was there. In this case, the camera was very kind and captured the World’s Shiniest Floor™ and the World’s Last Letterbox*.
Good work, camera.
(There’s been some talk in the past – and I am looking right at you, Ehpem – that I carry a vat of Photographer’s Floor Shine™ with me on my travels. I can state without reservation that I can neither confirm nor deny those allegations.)
