Across the street from our house if a concrete enclosed bayou (since this is the bayou city) in a forty foot grassy ravine. Along the banks wildflowers, mostly bluebonnets right now but later there will be Indian paintbrushes, grow in the spring months. Aparrently these flowers make great backdrops for memorable photos, epsecially those involving pets and small children. The sucky thing about this for us is that, being the corner house, people decide to park in front of our house and then walk across the street to the fields. Now it’s lame enough that everyone and their dog (literaly) are hanging out across the street from us taking lame pictures (and probably casing the joint as well) but then they have to park all up in our yard while they do it.

I managed to get a few covert shots of the family (and their vehile in front of the house) during their visit.
