Barbed wire, barb wire, or bob wire; whatever you want to call it, it’s ubiquitous on the High Plains. This is cattle country and the roads are lined with barbed wire. Some large cattle operations don’t have fences on the internal county roads and some don’t maintain fences very well, so there is always a

Dirt Road Diary #15
The bike is my preferred exploration vehicle for dirt roads and gravel byways, but there isn’t always enough time. I had an appointment 40 miles away a few days ago, and an 80-mile round trip by bicycle is an all-day adventure, perhaps longer depending on road and weather conditions, so I took the Jeep. I

Wasp Hunter
Macro photography has always fascinated me. Capturing a larger-than-life image of a bee, spider, or wasp may not be as exciting as sneaking up on a moose or a polar bear but it’s still pretty exciting. Like big game hunting you need to scout out the terrain and habitat and patiently wait for opportunities to

Perhaps I’ve developed a greater appreciation for things that have weathered the seasons as I’ve passed into elderhood or maybe I appreciate the classic lines and lasting utility of old farm trucks. Either way, I find them nearly irresistible when I’m exploring the countryside with the cameras. Here are two that celebrate the magical texture

It’s the most beautiful time of the year, on the High Plains. Fall’s pretty special in the places where hardwood trees grow, but that’s not here. Very few trees grow here, except in the major creek bottoms or in town, where folks water and care for them. So, Spring is the most beautiful time of

Downtown Austin has an eclectic mix of old and new architecture that blends well. We spent a Sunday morning on a walkabout in the city center when the population density is probably as low as it goes. The trusty iPhone Mini was used for all the images we collected. Never Stop Exploring!

The wind is howling again today, ugh. It’s been blowing for days and everyone in town is grinding their teeth; angry and edgy, hoping for a bit of calm before they go stark raving mad. I thought seasonal affective disorder (SAD) was just a wintertime thing, but it’s like fingernails on a chalkboard when the

Whether you call the artistic endeavor; graffiti, mural, wall art, outdoor art, or something else, Austin reigns supreme in the great state of Texas for the medium. We perused hundreds of sites on our ambulatory adventures around Austin during our recent visit. Here are a couple of our favorites. Never Stop Exploring!
