Williams Tower

Nov22

Just across the lawn from the Waterwall in Houston is this awesome building. And the lawn makes for a good picnic spot or ultimate frisbee field – if it is not pouring down rain like it tends to do in Houston.

Waterwall

Nov22

It rained in Houston today, so since I was walking around wet, why not get up close and personal with the Waterwall? If you stand too close, in awe of the falling sheets of water like me, you will walk away with splash soaked jeans and shoes. I warned you…

Hard Rock – Biloxi III

Nov22

Here are some parting shots from the Hard Rock. I really like the quote from Alex Van Halen.

“Fall Seven Times
Get Up Eight”

I left Biloxi today and approximately 422 miles later, arrived in Houston. That was a lot of driving!

Mornings

Nov21

Mornings are not a good time. Have you ever taken a terrible photo because you were too lazy to make it an awesome photo? Here is my most recent example of this concept. If only I had fully woken up, thrown on some clothes, and gone outside with my camera (maybe to the top corner of the parking garage), I would have been rewarded with a lovely sunrise photo. Like I said, mornings are not a good time.

French Quarter

Nov20

Here are some sights from my quick walk around the French Quarter in downtown New Orleans this evening.

Jackson Square

Nov20

My favorite time to visit Jackson Square is right at sunset. Most likely the square will be filled with people, music, art, and joy.

Audubon Aquarium of the Americas – Aquarium

Nov20

One day I will learn how to take photos of sharks…

Audubon Aquarium of the Americas – Parakeet Pointe

Nov20

The parakeets at the Audubon Aquarium of the Americas are curious and friendly. They were all interested in my jacket pocket and they wanted to climb up to my shoulder to have a look around. What fun they were!
