Howdy from West Texas!

Howdy pardner,

Right now I'm in Anson/Abilene, Texas with my dad, Aunt B, Aunt Barbara and Uncle Terry. It's Barbara's and Terry's farm. It is FREEZING and unfortunately we don't have any heat as we are helping build the house.

Yesterday was wonderful because we toured the wind farms, Downtown Abilene, and Downtown Anson. While in Abilene the others went and shopped a bit while I went to the National Museum of Children's Literature and The Grace Museum. I thoroughly enjoyed both! I wish I had more time but I'll have to come back some other time...which I'm sure we'll visit a few times a year from now on.

Today is not quite as fun as I'm in charge of cleaning dry wall off of windows. Maybe I'll get to photograph some of the land at sunset today. Last time I was here I didn't bring my camera so I was just stealing pictures from others.

Mardi Gras in Galveston




The parades were super fun...So many beads! And made new friends on the street :)

Mavericks Game




The Mavericks vs. Rockets game was awesome! I loved watching them so close. And the end was a real nail-biter. Unfortunately the Mavs lost...but I congratulate the Rockets. Game well played!
