Texas Armadillo The lowly armadillo is mostly considered a pest, especially if you discover they've been digging up your yard or flowerbed. They have terrible eyesight and will walk right by you if you hold still. There are many species to be found, but one type is very easy to identify. It's the Texas Armadillo. It will be the one flat on it's back, guzzling a bottle of Lone Star. If it's drinking anything else, it's a Texas-want-to-be. This wood carving was found at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo vendor area.
Vacation is Over It’s been a week or more with no staff meetings, conference calls or deadlines. You slept in late, ate out a lot and did some site-seeing. Now, as night time falls, you sigh, thinking all this ends soon. But you’re grateful for the vacation you just had and for a job to go back to. Life may have its struggles, but moments like these you tuck away, to remember later and encourage you through until your next vacation. The Pensacola Beach Fishing Pier is a great place to view the sunset or sunrise. Go out past the surf, where it’s quiet and a great place to reflect on things.
Power Nap Being a cow is hard work I suppose. You have to constantly eat to keep your figure, plus it takes a lot of energy to 'moove' that figure around too. So whenever you get a chance, you try to take in a quick power nap. These sleepy friends were at The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, waiting their time to show. For many city folks, a livestock show may be the only opportunity to see up close livestock normally found in the country. It's great family fun too.
