Thursday – A Little Personal

    We have been having a little rain this week. While walking the dogs, I looked out over the water and saw this cloud formation. There are three waterspouts under the clouds but unfortunately unless you blow this photo up they remain hard to see. I marked them with little arrows so maybe you can […]

Thursday-A Little Personal – Wedding Coast Style

This weekend my wife and I were able to attend our friends’ wedding. I thought I would share a couple of the photographs from the reception. The first is a photo of the event venue. As you can see, the reception was held on the beach. The wedding itself was in a church in town. […]

Thursday – A Little Personal

A couple of weeks ago I did a post that had the tail end of a freighter moving through the Corpus Christi ship channel on the way to pick up some oil. I wasn’t quick enough to get a good picture. You can go HERE to see it if you want. I was finally successful […]

Thursday – A Little Personal

I thought I would give a view of our shipping channel which I took this last week. This is a large oil tanker moving toward the Port of Corpus Christi to pick up a load of Oil that has come from the Eagle Shale oilfield. This is oil that has been extracted from the shale […]

Identify the post: introduction, story, poem. Explain why it was your first post. Nominate five other bloggers. Since I have been […]

Thursday – A Little Personal

  I just returned from an excellent writer’s conference and have the need to change/set some short-term goals if I am to accomplish what I envisioned as a successful conclusion when I started this writer’s journey. To begin the process, I think a restatement of my original goal (mission statement) is in order. Here it […]

Thursday – A Little Personal

For the last year, I have not been able to talk or write about the day our beloved Silky Terrier took her walk over the Rainbow Bridge. I’m not too sure I can write about it now, but it is time to move from avoiding the memories of that day to remembering the fun and good […]

Thursday – A Little Personal

Thursday is the time to do a post that has some meaning to me and will hopefully not bore you to death. Today I’m posting a status of my self-installed screening on my screen porch to appeal to my DIY muse Dan Antion. Dan is always interested in this kind of stuff, and I also […]

Thursday – A Little Personal

One thing about living close to the Gulf is everything of metal is subject to deterioration due to salt spray, sand and the wind. This includes automobiles, bikes and houses. Of course, there are no houses made of metal but they do have metal roofs and fixtures. I thought you would enjoy seeing some of […]

Thursday – A Little Personal

I shot the following photo on a bike ride Monday of this week. Typically I tell stories about the beach on Tuesday but I couldn’t resist taking a little detour here. In case you don’t recognize the object in the picture it is a life vest with the name Cubierta Skandinavian. Loosely translated the words mean […]
