The Texas Gypsies


For Valentine's Day, Annie took me to a concert.

The Texas Gypsies performed at the Farr Best Opry in Mansfield, Texas. An excellent show.

Mike Sizer gave us one of the finsest soprano sax solos I have ever heard. Thanks Mike. Fun talking to you too.



Also: Jeff says today is the birthday of the Telecaster Guitar.

Three Soldiers

and a lurker

After I did the bit of adjusting that I normally do to bring out details I decided to go on an do a some restoration since it is such a lovely photograph. I tried to maintain the aged feeling of the print and still repair some of the damage.

There was nothing added. The details were all there, just very faint.

As usual, I retained a before and after copy.

Thinking Wall

Walls and partitions.


She said, “I just don’t know you now;
I don’t know who you are.”
Her eyes were turned to something else;
A place he could not see.
A fog crept in around his thoughts;
A grayness filled his world
She met his gaze, his mind, once more;
He felt their thoughts dissolve
Their time had stretched too thin to last
She turned and walked away.
Her footsteps etched into his past
His future was today.
