Life is a Bumpy Road

Austin, Texas. Travel in Texas. Life in General. "Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. - - -Dylan Thomas

Location: Austin, Texas, United States

I am an esteemed alumni of Austin College in Sherman Texas (Class of "none of your business"). I graduated with a BA in Liberal Arts as a History Major. Subsequently, I have worked in the human services field since graduation because there aren't too many jobs out there for history majors. Except for my short incarceration in Sherman, I have always lived in Austin, Texas. That's not totally true, I was born in England and lived there approximately 18 months, but for some strange reason I don't remember living there. I travel through out Texas for my job, every week. So beware Texans, I might be coming to a town near you!! I am happily married to a wonderful guy and have 0 (zero, zilch) children. (We just forgot to have them?) I find life amusing now (I used to find it extremely depressing but that's another story). So here's to Life, which after all can be a very bumpy road!

"Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are even incapable of forming such opinions." -Albert Einstein

Houston





Here it is folks! The view from my hotel room in Houston this past week. Not much to look at is it? Mostly it was a highway and some office buildings. Houston was humid this past week, but really green. It always amazes me the amount of vegetation they can grow down there. And such a variety! I saw this really cool tree with red flowers on it. The flowers looked round and kind of like pom-poms. Like giant mimosa tree flowers only thicker and round. Really interesting tree. Tbere are sago palms everywhere. It seems like every yard has at least one. And banana trees are all over the place. So, you might ask, why did I take a picture of concrete and cars? Because I didn't have a chance to take any pictures of yards and plants. Maybe next time.
