Baylor has a two game win streak if you reach back to their last Big 12 game last year game Big 12 against OSU. It's their first back to back Big 12 wins ever. Yeah...I'm grasping.

This is another simple one I enjoy. Plain. But the contrast and the bright colors. I like it.

Something about this, I don't know what, I just keep coming back to it. It's simple. There's not much there. But I like it.

Playing with the 50mm today. Took one of John but the focus didn't work out for some reason. Will was making a goofy face, I told him to stop. This is the result, a goofier face.

BU v TCU

Another season, another loss...to a mostly inferior team. They beat themselves. TCU had two good plays, unfortunately that was all it took. Baylor could not make the plays when it counted. Disappointing. TCU put a new quarterback in the second half. He should be their starter. If he didn't win the position last night, he got screwed.

Sat for a loooooong time waiting for the food. Way too long.

Found out today that I won nothing for my photos at the State Fair, not even a friggin honorable mention. I'm not bitter.

First time to enter. We'll try again sometime. Played golf this afternoon, not well, but got out of the office for the afternoon.

Will needed a picture of his family for school. We hadn't taken a picture together since he's been out of diapers. Shot this real quick this morning.

Sunday in Waco and the Drive-through

Evan Jurls stayed over with the boys last night, so we were up pretty early as we are with guests. My mom made a suprise visit on her way home from Georgetown. It was good to see her. Then we went out to Poppa and Mimi's for a short swim.

We all know what Joe Pesci had to say about drive-throughs. It's true. Stopped by Whataburger on the way back from swimming ordered three (3) Whataburger Jr's with cheese, one (1) Whataburger Jr no cheese and a large fry. Get home and there are two with cheese, one with no cheese, and fries. Missing a whole burger. The only good thing is we weren't charged for it. So I ate left over quesadillas. There you go.

Taken while out cacheing today. Man it's hot. This is really pretty close to the house. Who knew it existed?!?

Went to Savannah for a quick meeting. Got there late Tuesday afternoon, had dinner, went to a bar, drank beer.

I got up pretty early. The Marshall House is said to be haunted. I swear someone woke me up. I took a quick walk before breakfast. Had a wrap-up session and hit the road, er, air. Home by 1:30.

I've become obsessed with the geocaching. This was the frst one I found. It's just right across from the office. I've found 20 so far. Plus, I've already come down with a bad case of Poison Ivy. John and Will love to help.
