Day at the park

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Sun, 20 May 2007 04:27:00 +0000

Today was a very nice day, so I decided to take a photo in one of the nearby parks. We've been having nice weather all week... however we need some rain.

Baby Mockingbird

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Sat, 19 May 2007 04:14:00 +0000

Look what I found! Mockingbirds're the Texas state bird and they're mean little buggers. I tried to shoo this one to a new location because the dog had seen it, and it came at me. I was rather startled; I guess the babies are mean, too.

Ladybug

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Fri, 18 May 2007 04:28:00 +0000

I'm back! Was I missed?

Anyway, I saw this cute little ladybug sitting on top of my car when I left work.

Glasses

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Thu, 12 Apr 2007 02:39:00 +0000

Glasses! Taken in the optometrist's office on 518. I had to go in and pick up my contacts.

Sorry for the lack of posts. I was busy and sick and stuff. Ah well, excuses.

Easter flowers

The local Krogers is selling these for Easter. Tomorrow's egg day!

Bench for sale!

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Fri, 06 Apr 2007 01:56:00 +0000

The Kroger on 518 and 270 are selling these benches. They were up high on the edge of a wall.

Post-rain

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Sun, 01 Apr 2007 22:16:00 +0000

Yesterday it poured down. My street flooded and everything... I should've taken a photo of that for yesterday's daily photo, but oh well. This coffee can full of water was sitting around outside Clear Lake Aikido dojo.

So much for more creative framing.

A fan

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Sat, 31 Mar 2007 04:41:00 +0000

This is random! It's an air conditioner fan! It's behind the library.

Anyway, I've noticed that I tend to frame all my photos the same way... so I'm going to try to get a bit more creative. We'll see how this goes.

Cookies

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Thu, 29 Mar 2007 05:17:00 +0000

Today I bring you another photo from the break room. I'll try to get something more interesting tomorrow. Anyway, isn't that cookie jar cute?

Dirty

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Tue, 27 Mar 2007 02:14:00 +0000

This is how we keep track of whether the dishes are dirty or clean in the break room at work. Sadly, I didn't get to go anywhere cool since my hip and back acted up halfway through work, so this is all ya'll get today.

Flowers

noreply@blogger.com (emu) — Mon, 26 Mar 2007 04:16:00 +0000

It's me! Shock!

I forget what these flowers are called despite the fact that they are also growing in front of my house. This is behind the library, where they grow unchecked and in abundance every spring.

Sweet ride

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Sun, 25 Mar 2007 00:09:00 +0000

I found this snail on this leaf and immediatly thought "that had to be one wild ride."

Amusing sign

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Sat, 24 Mar 2007 04:14:00 +0000

...So you better not park there.

Eggs!

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Wed, 21 Mar 2007 02:18:00 +0000

Today when I went outside, the dove I mentioned a couple of posts ago wasn't in her nest for whatever reason... so I realized that I could take a photo of her eggs. However, I'm short and even on a chair I couldn't see them, so this is a blind shot. Sorry it's kind of blurry.

Wild flowers

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Sun, 18 Mar 2007 07:50:00 +0000

These cute little wild flowers were demanding a photo. I wish them luck in escaping a lawn mower.

Mourning Dove

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Sat, 17 Mar 2007 22:50:00 +0000

Every year, a pair of Mourning Doves makes a nest in this hanging plant. I really don't know why, though; half their chicks fall in the pool and drown. It's really quite sad.

Anyway, there're two eggs in there when I checked.

Sunning on a nice day

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Sat, 17 Mar 2007 03:46:00 +0000

Yes, it's another one of those green anoles. I watch them pretty regularly, and I like taking photos of them, too. Anyway, I thought Mary looked really happy and carefree today, so I took her photo.

New frond

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Fri, 16 Mar 2007 03:41:00 +0000

Ferns look so cool when they're putting out new fronds. I always find the spiral to be fascinating.

Paper clovers

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Thu, 15 Mar 2007 02:27:00 +0000

Krogers is doing a donation program where if you donate a few dollars, your name gets put on a clover and hung up. Look, there's even a gold one!

Select Jeeps

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Tue, 13 Mar 2007 22:29:00 +0000

There's a little used Jeep store located on Hwy-3 between Walker and 96 that I find rather amuzing. It started off small, with a cement slab and some jeeps... then it got a pile of dirt to display a jeep on... then some rocks and a fancy sign and, well, stuff. The jeeps are pretty cheap and they're obviously doing very well.

Also, sorry for the lack of posts recently. I was out of town for the weekend.

Best photo of me ever

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Fri, 09 Mar 2007 03:07:00 +0000

This really should've gone up yesterday since that was my birthday, so happy belated birthday to myself! I'm 20!

Photo credit goes to my dad.

A purple flower

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Thu, 08 Mar 2007 05:24:00 +0000

Sorry for the lack of posts! Today I bring you a purple flower!!!

The feeder

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Tue, 06 Mar 2007 04:34:00 +0000

Quick shot I took while my dad was driving when we were about to turn onto the I-45 feeder.

Chili's

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Sat, 03 Mar 2007 05:39:00 +0000

Chili's is a nifty little restaurant chain that's famous for its baby back ribs song that it used to play in its commercials. I'll have to take the words of others that those things are good; I don't like that kind of meat. I can say that their cheese sticks are excellent, though.

Sorry for the picture quality, my Panasonic doesn't do well in dim lighting and I didn't grab the new camera.

Car dealerships

noreply@blogger.com (★Li) — Fri, 02 Mar 2007 05:32:00 +0000

One advantage eastern Texas has over many places is the amount of flat space. Car dealerships take advantage of this. I'll never forget when I visited my sister in LA a while back being shocked at how tiny the dealerships were there; I've grown up in Texas and I'd never seen new car dealers with so little space. Well, this one Mercedes dealership takes up a nice chunk of land off of I-45 between 518 and 96, though you can't really see how much in this photo.
