While talking with my Bud Jim down in Austin yesterday he mentioned that no one visits his blog.  http://terlinguajim.blogspot.com/  and that he has just set up a web page that he will eventually use to host his photography and video work at ( not much yet but the space is set up )  http://www.terlinguadreams.com/ and he may well set up yet another spot in the future. Sure glad to see him getting into the photography   again cause he does some good stuff.    I'm trying to get him to get a GoPro camera like mine  and  he probably will to use to take videos of hot air balloon weddings . 

You ought to see his house and all the photo work he has done over the years in different areas, with  a big concentration on the Big Bend region.

So, shameless plug for you to visit my buddy's site ( s) and say HI on his blog..

So, what have I got planned for today?  Beats hell outa me, besides trash set out and lotto ticket nuthing comes to mind yet.

Shoot a little on a pizza won't hurt either I guess huh :-)

Later that afternoon.  Just got off the phone with Jim in Austin,  he's having a problem with his comments section, people can comment on it, BUT he can't reply to comments.  He's looking into it but if anyone has any ideas let us know . Either here , or at his site in the comment section Here

5:30 Update... I didn't feel or hear this Earthquake in  Cleburne.

All I've done , besides feed the cats is replace a mini blind in the bedroom.  There is something wrong with that one window. All my others are the same size and take a 29"  mini blind. But inn that  that one window it comes up  short  ( width wise) I've learned to put a small screw in the holder to keep it from sliding out when I raise it.
