Hawk

Hawk 002_800x536 I saw this beautiful bird in my front yard this morning.  He must not have been hungry since that dead snake is still out there in the driveway.

Trip to Goliad

On 8/17/2010 Margaret, Jack, Nathan and I took a short day trip to Goliad to walk around downtown, see the Mission, Presidio and visit Fannin and his men’s grave.
