Teaser and the Feral Kat

Sweater weather here in the Hill Country. We tried out the heat last week. It was also 75 today. Makes for shorts with v-neck ensembles, regrettable.

I just bought two Cat Stevens records - getting soft. Like my mentor Speedo - whom I've just discovered is the Swami from Yo Gabba Gabba. Genius, plated.


With zero reflection, American Treasures. Discuss.

Exercise - go to netflix, click "new release" and browse. Not one movie nets more than 1.5 stars. Pure poop. "Wild Hogs" territory. If you find yourself in the same pickle, queue up Downhill Racer.

Introducing the Country Captain.



Lee Bros. here in a couple weeks. We plan to Bobby Flay them on arrival.

Jane, sitting on several thousand peas.


Little people's table, Tommy and Avery's house. Jane went CP club.


Trouble.


Practicing jumping.





Two pieces of business.

There is a scenario where I drive off the HONDA lot, on my birthday, in a new mom car.

Somebody just had a baby - proper props to follow. Huge Klambake hi-ya to that unit. Welcome to the occupation!

Up on the Sun / Sunday You Need Love

Me and the bean hit our first daddy / daughter rock show this weekend. We lasted 2.5 hours, and only two south Austin hippies messed with me about bringing the childrens' to the rock show. Jane gave them the face. We stuck to the heavy stuff.

Here's she is during the SWORD's set:



The most generous man on Saturday, HH2. Pre-show, with the fat passes.


My saddle bag, the prof.


Was in loose fitting purple briefs, two minutes after this was snapped. Band killed it.


Somewhere around the bishop's finger, backstage, Les Savy Fav.



THE MAIN EVENT.



Have missed that band badly.

- moving on -

Dad has the week off, naturally we road trip TEXAS style. Did the Hill Country Tuesday, SA ZOO today.

Blanco, TX.



Luckenbach, chasing the rooster.


Christmas Island.


Enchanted Cottage, world's largest piece of pink granite, expertly captured here:


New Braunfels, Wurstfest:


Anyone guesses what / where this is, free jerky.


San Antonio Zoo. All real animals:



And where Colonel Travis bought his big ticket:



Sleeping in tomorrow. Gotta rest up for frisbee and the Country Captain.

Luckenbach kind of slow on a Tuesday morning.

Glick or Treat

Halloween pleasantly plated. McKennas representing TX style. Dad phoned it in, Mom might have been Tony Flags Peach Beard. Thunder / flash:


In Jane's words, punkies, also my name for the doorbell ringers.


Had some under 3 footers over. Served a London Broil. Got the wicker bar going, fire hazard. Back yard all dolled up.





Episodes from the past couple weeks, pre-gaming, monkey helmet, pony rides, toolin' with Haze and Liam, bed time and airport send-off with Grandma McKenna.














Jane and I are getting ready for the Jesus Lizard tomorrow. She can say "Mouthbreather", "Lady Shoes", and "Dancing Naked Ladies" now. Useful.
