Photos from Texas




Here are some of the photos I took at the Texas State Capitol, in Austin, Texas on Monday. The first one is the inside of the rotunda dome. The last one is the Texas State Seal on the floor of the Capitol building.

We drove today to Willcox, Arizona -- a short drive, but one that leaves us an even shorter drive tomorrow. I like to arrive "home" early in the day, since there is so much to do on arrival day.

When we arrived here in Willcox, we unhooked the car and drove her into town. We went for a walk, covering many of Willcox's streets, exploring the historic downtown, and scoping restaurants! We had an early dinner at the Big Tex BBQ, which is situated in an old train car! Good food and a nice time. Tonight we're chillin' in the RV, messing with photos in Photoshop, and not paying much attention to the TV, which is playing comedy shows.

  2. Janee, I love your pictures of our state capitol. If you find a photo of the liberty statue on top, you'll see she is not a pretty girl. The building had a face-lift a few years ago and she had some sandblasting done, but up close -- woo-fah! Her features are oversized so they are visible at street level.

    I know you and Jack had a wonderful trip to your winter houses. Good for you!

  3. Thanks, Ray!
    Lynell, I'm glad they meet your approval. In fact, I did get a zoom on that face of the lady on the dome. Yikes! You are right! I thought it was my imagination or something. She looks like a Manga character!
