Yield!

Yield!
I saw this sign being enveloped by this heart shaped green vegetation and I just had to grab a pic. It always makes me laugh to see these signs because everyone I know says San Antonio drivers don't know how to yield. Even my sister who was born and raised here bitches about people that yield when they shouldn't and those that don't when they should.

For those at Fort Hood:
“That which causes us trials shall yield us triumph: and that which make our hearts ache shall fill us with gladness. We must pass through the darkness, to reach the light.”-Albert Pike

La Luna

the moon
The moon was incredible tonight. So big and orangy looking. This was an early shot, before the bigness and the orange stuff happened. I tried to take one later, but the movement of the car did not help me get anything but light streaks. My niece of course was enchanted by it, although she was convinced like most kids her age are that the moon was following us.

Fall is Here

Rake up a Good Book
When I saw this tree on the wall the first thought that went through my mind was cool. I like how they brought this tree to life. Check out some books about Fall.

The Blue Line Stops Here

the blue line stops here
The Blue line of the VIA trolley's now stops in front (Soledad) of the Central Library in downtown San Antonio. Previously it stopped on the right (Navarro). It doesn't much matter to me where it stops since I used to take it when it was on the right, but still this is nice. I take advantage of that line especially during the holidays when I take jaunts to River Center Mall for shopping or to grab pics of the Christmas tree when it goes up.

Theme Day: Door ways

I decided to emulate Paris Daily Photo and kill two birds with one stone. The theme for this month is door ways and today is also Dia de los Muertos. I thought this photo covered both of those nicely. This is a shot from San Fernando Cemetery on Castroville.
