Santa Land. This is traditional.

I roamed around there Sunday morning. There was one cop in the parking lot for some reason and a few Parks and Recreation people doing some stuff inside. But that might be premature-- I'll finish off the backyard and then get back to Santa Land. Land of Fantasy.

Santa Land is all fantasy, but my backyard is real.

I kind of like the way it looks now.

I think I'll finish this off tomorrow and then get back to the Christmas stuff.

Back To Lubbock For Christmas

Starting out with the wreckage of last summer's garden. Everything dead now.

Except for the birds. I'm still filling feeders with sunflower seeds, and a lot of sunflowers remain as perches. 

The sunflowers are dead, of course. I'm feeding some stray cats, and I've found ways to keep the cats from ambushing birds. Last year I cleared out all the dead stuff, but this year I won't. It'll be even wilder in the garden next summer-- more jungle-like than ever. Fencing material can foil the cats and protect the birds. I'm going to have both.

There will still be a lot of work to do in the spring, but I'm looking forward to it. Right now it looks kind of rustic. I like that look. Lots more Lubbock to come. I did Santa Land again, in McKenzie part and lots of other stuff. Lots of pics on the way. I plan to get out with a camera on Christmas day and take a lot of pics. The weather should be good for it and I would not expect much traffic or any people getting in my way.

New Braunfels 2019 Set 20

And this will be the end of that.

I didn't exactly retrace my steps-- wanted to see some different things.

The weather was far better.

I used an alley.

And this is all of New Braunfels 2019.

New Braunfels 2019 Set 19

So now, I am finally getting close to Wurstfest traffic entering Landa Park.

Emerging from behind the Catholic church...

And here we are. This is as close as I wanted to get.

This underpass enters onto an old two lane bridge, and just beyond that is the Wurstfest entrance. See all the traffic?

That was enough for me. I turned around and walked back. And I'll finish New Braunfels 2019 next time.
