OUT IN THE COUNTRY

Aledo, TX

Okay, the theme wouldn't be right if I didn't have something that conveyed what Texas is about. Many old barns, cattle, horses, ranches, etc....can be found along with cities, mountains and coastline. But, in my neck of the woods, this is something I see everyday. This is part of the ground beneath my feet.

Nice old barn...looks like it could use a new roof, like the bovine in the pasture. Nice setting. Prefer the country to the city!

Ah Cindi, are you sure you didn't shoot this on your trip to Tennessee???? Could have been made anywhere 'round here. Of course you Texans did steal most of your culture from Tennessee...Davy Crockett, Sam Houston..... ;)

Where time stands still, the country folk live by a different time clock eh, at
least they do here in Australia. Wonderful to see all the greenery Cindi!

Almost reminds me of the "Astronaut Farmer" after the launch.

Beautiful!

Beautiful scene, Cindi. Some people see a broken roof. I see a lovely pasture, dabs of sun and shade, and a long history full of challenge and success. I see your love for Texas and I share it.
