New Braunfels Microcosm

As usual, I ZOOOMED IN on New Braunfels. No panoramic views here.




I chose to feature a few abandoned homes.




This place was in really bad shape.




The more closely we looked, the more bad things we saw.

Concluding Construction

We are concluding our examination of this construction zone.




Build it, and they will come.




Bigger and better and onward and upward. 




We will soon shift our focus to an older neighborhood in New Braunfels, Texas. It will be an older POOR neighborhood.

Another High End Subdivision In Lubbock

There's no danger of running out of space, but running out of water is a real danger.


 This is a HUGE school!






Is there ever such a thing as ENOUGH?




I am anti-growth. Enough is what I say. No more.




Too much. Our Aquifer WILL be depleted, and the wells WILL go dry, and Lubbock will NOT be able to support even the current population, much less what developers hope to add. This growth is crazy. Unfortunately it is also very profitable. Profit is the magic bomb that will ultimately destroy life as we know it.




House for sale! House for sale! Get 'em while they still smell of fresh paint and glue!
