myth disguised as fact
It seems like nearly every time a town in this part of Texas gets national media recognition, there will be a mention of tumbleweeds rolling down the streets at mid-day. (I presume a style manual somewhere mandates this tired reference.)
But, maybe it’s true? This tumbleweed was clearly in town when it got itself wedged between a fence and a utility pole.

Tumbleweeds will tumble
If you’re from a windy place, you probably already noticed the way the netting is curving, pushed by the wind. And you have probably already noticed that those tumbleweeds are a little blurry because they were, in fact, tumbling by just as I made the images.
