Thought some of my God fearin' patriot friends might appreciate this.

The window of a local Whataburger.

That's how we roll in Texas!

Whataburger is Texas grown and bred...hard to keep us cowboy rednecks from speakin' our minds!


Must admit, I was a little surprised when I saw it, and proud.

"Best hamburgers in Texas and America!"

Oh yeah, I've been there. I can't remember if it was burgers or what.

Ft Hood, Killeen, Waco, Austin, and San Antonio.

I heard Hank Williams on acid at the Vulcan Gas in Austin. It was intermission, waiting for The Band to play.

Needless to say that man is always with me.

That sign brings back fond Texas memories.

Sign in the window of a dry cleaners in Austin: "We reweave knife and bullet holes."

Tombstone in the graveyard at Killeen: "He Was A Good Cowboy"

I have pics of those words but I'll probably never see them again. Ft Hood provided a black and white darkroom for us, that's what got me through marking time for 6 months waiting on my discharge. I was a Tri-X, high contrast, 'grain is not a worry' kind of guy. I still am more or less.

My Minolta SRT 101 was state of the art and my first camera. I didn't know how good it was until later. I shot slides while preforming my 'safe' job in Vietnam. I'll never see those slides again either.

In Texas, I was saturated with country music. Most of the LA cowboy rockers then became mostly irritating for me. ('mostly irritating' includes the Eagles') I only play one Eagles tune, 'Old 55' but that was penned by Tom Waits, so there's that. lol.

You would have to ask them...or just pick one of your own understanding.
