I saw these while on an urban hike through the Mueller neighborhood in Austin, Texas. What a great idea!

The Friday Fictioneer Challenge: Write a 100-word story based on the photo.

Pack Mentality
Tina saw them approaching, knew what was coming. Get three boorish men together, they think they’re an army. Add alcohol and their delusions of grandeur expand, considering themselves invincible. Misguided pack mentality, she thought.
“We don’t like your kind in here,” one man slurred. “Why don’t you swim the rest of the way.”
She ignored him.
He leaned in, “Afraid of getting your hair wet?”
She growled, displaying her fangs. On cue, several other werewolves came out onto the deck, circling the men. Three splashes soon followed.
Yes, as the alpha werewolf, Tina knew a lot about pack mentality.

Simply Austin Furniture
Every time I drive by this business I admire their doors. Finally I had my camera with me (on yet another grey day).



Thursday is for Doors over at Norm 2.0.

Some days one parking spot just isn’t enough?
I was walking around the park when I saw this dog having lots of fun. Somehow I got these photos without having to stop and change the camera settings.
