1. Wonderful skies!

And those strong straight streets and buildings.

[Texasgal]

2. One of favorite places on earth!

I LOVE West Texas and Big Bend! Been going since I was a child.... the Chisos Mountains are my favorite!!!!!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. Stunning shots, my dear DemoTex!

Love 'em all.

4. We do have beautiful skies. I once went to a exhibit on weather and clouds in California and more

than half of the pictures were taken in Texas.

5. So empty.

[redwitch]

7. That's good!

I cry when I places filled with people ignoring reality.

I also cry for no reason at all these days.

Hang on friend!

[sheshe2]

8. Yes, redwitch, a good thing.

However, frightening.

You hang on as well. Best to you and yours.

[redwitch]

9. Yeah, definitely scary.

I have major mood swings now, from giddy to enraged to weeping. Worse than when I was pregnant!

[sheshe2]

10. Never been pregnant, yet my mood swings are huge.

6. Paris looks just like my towns main street in the 60's. All the buildings are still there but we

have enough trees now that it's almost all shade in the warm months.

12. Drank many a cup of coffee at 3am in the morning in Palacios

when I used to shrimp for seabob off Matagorda in the winter.

[Nature Man]

13. "Main Street" in the Midwest or Rust Belt

looks like that on a good day.

14. Back in the day, I rode in the Tour de Paris.

The community was very welcoming. The ride was well run. I even kept up with the real bicyclist for a few minutes.

It was a really good time.

15. You are really good Tex.

Each one is great in it's own way.
I hope someday you will publish a book. I'll buy one.

16. Very nice photos.

I think I'm getting familiar with your sense of style. Often enough, I'll see your photos before your tag and think "yep, gotta be DemoTex". I'd guess you spend some time looking for "just that right light".

Stay safe, although if you're on station at your new lookout (Pilot Peak or Sunset?) you're probably safer anyway.
