Mockingbird Serenade

This Mockingbird likes to sit on top of our house. Sometimes I can hear it when I’m in the kitchen; its song echoes down the stove vent. I like to think it is serenading us.

Here’s a good place to take a nap: on the bridge railing.

Coyote Sighting

Another coyote sighting in our pasture, in the early evening. We are seeing them closer and closer to the house these days. I hope we never actually cross paths. I’d probably hurt myself scrambling to get away.

Fury on the Fourth

In context, I’m sure this means you can buy tickets to see the bull riding event at the rodeo. The event is the Lee County’s Sheriff’s Posse Pro Bull Riding on July 4, 2015. Those prize belt buckles are a work of art in themselves.

Sign that reads "Bull riding tickets sold here!"

Geronimo was the first stop Pat and I made on a Saturday. We went down to check out the antique shops. We stopped in at the Geronimo General Store. All these photos are from the Geronimo General Store except for the horse and buggy photo; that is from down the road.
