More Pictures!

And why not? We are under a winter storm warning. The roads are slick with ice and it is crazy to go outside. My wife and I are both retired. We don't have to go anywhere. We got groceries and supplies before the storm hit and the weather was still very nice. We are cozy, and thankful for what we have. We have what we need, and we have each other. Some people couldn't be happy under any circumstances. Whatever they have it isn't enough, isn't good enough, isn't abundant enough, isn't stylish enough, might not impress people, and on and on. My wife pities such people. I despise them and I delight in their lack of contentment and peace. Let them DIE unsatisfied. Yeah, I'm a mean SOB...

Old Lubbock pics...

The weather is so lousy, I dug through old archives and found some more pics. Some of these were taken a long time ago and not all were taken in Lubbock. But they are all of some interest. So, I will start putting these up, before I try the next project, which will revive parts of Unofficial Lubbock, the Unofficial Lubbock Website I had years ago, hosted on AT&T when I still used a dial-up modem!!

While I am on a nostalgia kick, let me just state for the record that my wife and I listen to 97.7 FM, here in Lubbock, Texas. It is an excellent "oldies" station!

Completing The Latest Lubbock Photo Series

Today it is bleak, it is cold, it is windy. Today we have single-digit wind chills and freezing drizzle. It looks like we are stuck with really awful winter weather until the day before Thanksgiving, when the temps finally rise above freezing and we get some sunshine. Thanksgiving looks to be pretty nice, although a little on the cool side.

One More Set of Black & White Today

I'm trying to get this series finished. I'd like to get some winter stuff posted, some SEASONAL things.










 

More Black & White Lubbock, For Current Series

Beautiful weather when I took these. That is going to change soon. We are due for a real chill, and some very gloomy and wintery conditions within about 24hrs. If you can believe the forecast. Forecasting weather in this part of the country is not easy.
