This mural is a little goofy, and that works just fine for Port A. Always fun to go to the beach!

Texas Size
A noticeably big spider seen in my front yard.
Picturesque

Sunrise
My view this morning. Nice way to greet the day!
Partners in Crime
Margaret and me after our walk on the Mesa today. Selfies and social distancing are a weird mix!
Devil’s Claw
Yesterday Margaret and I took a walk on the open space behind her house. She found this weird looking dried seed pod from a plant called a Devil’s Claw (also referred to as an Elephant Tusk or a Unicorn Plant) common in the deserts of the Southwest.
Margaret says she has found lots of these pods. She gave me this one to keep, and I love it.
Spotting Some Similarities
Driving west out of Lubbock, you start to notice that all the little towns have a very similar look as you make your approach…
Muleshoe, Texas
Farwell, Texas
And Clovis, New Mexico. (Hint – it’s the grain elevator!)
Acorns, New Crop
It looks like there will be another bumper crop of acorns this year.
Seen at South Llano River State Park.
