hours to
I took a weekend off, took myself on a trip, and took pictures.
I found this out-of-business store along the Llano River; my second favorite thing I saw was this hand-lettered sign on the old front door. The spacing’s a little wonky and arc of “hours” isn’t quite centered. But it’s still there, doing what’s left of its job.
My third favorite thing was when the local game warden pulled over to see if I needed any help, like with a flat tire or something. After it was clear there was no problem, we had a little chat and then he headed off to look for hunters that didn’t have proper tags for deer. Or, you know, whatever.
My favorite thing was a big Texas spiny lizard sunning itself on a post. She was beautiful and I watched her for a long time.

dizzy
My brain does not like to see things that spin around. Seeing the motion makes it go all mushy on the inside (oddly, the exact feeling that calculus gave me that one awful semester in college).
Even standing on the ground trying to get a photo of the twirl-around ride* made me a little dizzy.

this raises some questions
