A Winter Walk

My intentions for my winter break are simple.  Relax.  Get organized.  Walk.

Maybe I could throw a few more in there, intentions having to do with planning classes and writing poems and reading great novels.  But Relax, Organize, Walk come close to summing it up.

On December 20th I walked from home across town to Walton's, where I had a bratwurst (shhh...) with sauerkraut and mustard, then up to REI, Whole Earth, and over to visit my mom at the shop where she works.  I let my camera dangle around my neck and I took I tried to capture details wherever I could.  Here are some of the things that caught my eye on this last day of autumn in Austin.

Around the mailbox, this little guy is twined.


Then at the end of the street, I am greeted by these bright signs.


Crossing I-35 is always the worst part of the walk. Colorful reminders keep the roar of traffic at bay.


Autumn in December



Gnarled beauty.




Urban exotica.



Remember: peace
