Mocking Birds

Mocking Birds
These are beautiful little birds. When I was a child, one of the first books I received was Adubon Illustrated Book of American Birds. One of the pictures was of two Mocking Birds in a bush protecting their nest from a rattlesnake.

Gold Fronted Woodpeckers

Woodpeckers
What pretty birds these are, but very very wary of anything close to them.

Another RV Park Cat prowling the fence line behind the feeder. I have to keep running him off, he thinks those birds are for him. This is a tail less cat.

Oso Pier, was one of my favorite places to be when I was a teenager. I first came to Corpus to get away from my parents to live with my Aunt and Uncle. I spent many a weekend fishing from this pier being my grandfather ran the bait stand at the pier. It's old and tired now and not being used anymore. Sort of like me.

Shrimp on the T-heads of Corpus Christi Texas. They wanted 5 bucks a pound. Which I thought was quite high.

In this photo is one corner of our slide out in the RV. You can see some of the art created that adorns that corner. Notice the Krispy Kremes Donuts that are on the table. Instant Fat Pills.

I will carry this into the circle in honor of my Father-in-law: Kenneth J. Walton and his son John L Walton who kept it in his safe keeping until his wife returned it to me. I was told it was from Peru.

Thomas Jefferson

After the contentious election of 1800, Thomas Jefferson said this during his inauguration: Let us, then, fellow-citizens, unite with one heart and one mind. Let us restore to social intercourse that harmony and affection without which liberty and even life itself are but dreary things. And let us reflect that, havingbanished from our land that religious intolerance under which mankind so long bled and suffered, we have yet gained little if we countenance a political intolerance as despotic, as wicked, and capable of as bitter and bloody persecutions. - March 4, 1801
