Vehicle Inspection
On January 1, 2011, we started off the year with some excitement. These photos are the result of getting hit by a blue sedan. Incredibly, she only sustained this eye injury and a bloody lip. Lindsey (pictured below) stated "I just wanted a closer look at the transmission." After having her eye put back in and stitched shut and one night in the animal hospital she is now back home recovering. "Eye should have known better!", she concluded.

Football Hamburger
Upon reviewing this photo that I took today I noticed that it looks like a football player holding a hamburger patty. It's a world of illusions!

When You Finally Arrive
I know that I have officially arrived because I had my car's oil changed at a shop that had this in the waiting area.

The International Bowling Museum
Today during a lunch break from a meeting, I visited the International Bowling Museum. I learned that it costs $9.50 and is open Tuesday - Saturday. Interestingly enough, there is also a training and research center next door. There are 14 training lanes and a few for R&D. Below are pictures of the outside since I was short on time and $9.50.

String Beans
Pictured below is the food (255lbs) we collected from the cookout referenced in the post below entitled "Hotdogs and Poddogs". On Thurday September 16th, we delivered that food to the local food mission. Before we left the mission, we were treated to "You Are My Sunshine" played by this talented woman using an autoharp.

Hotdogs and Poddogs
We recently had a cookout at work to raise donations for a local charity. After you've cooked about 40-50 hotdogs, you start looking for other things to do. This vine caught my attention and therefore I created and served the first "poddog". No one was willing to try it.
Season Opener 2010
On Sunday, September 12th we went to the Texans vs. Colts football game. We had the pleasure of watching the Houston Texans defeat the Colts 34-24 in their first regular season game of 2010. I also had the pleasure of having my photo taken by a concession worker. Apparently I made the first purchase of the season from that particular concession stand, so in response I took one of her too.

Wichita Falls Equine(s)
During a recent visit to Wichita Falls I noticed these horses around town painted with different themes. I took this picture and then did some research to find out what these represented. A local non-profit organization auctions them off to raise money and local businesses/organiztions purchase them and place them in front of their establishments. The one pictured was painted by Kim Ward and was purchased/sponsored by United Regional. http://www.themaneevent.org/

Rail Car Stop
I spotted this pair of rail car stops in Bowie, TX. A friend of mine found one of these on the side of the highway a year or so ago and brought it home. We had to do some research to figure it out what it was as we had never seen one before. According to a website that sells this type of equipment, they weigh 173lbs. and cost approximately $750. Its probably for sale at a discount if anyone wants it. It's red in color, not orange as seen below.

Tick Tock
A fellow employee and I had differing opinions on which clock was more attractive. The black and white clock was originally on the wall, but I replaced it with the "Footprints" clock. The latter was described as being unattractive and the colors were boring, as opposed to the black and white color scheme on the original. The picture below is my solution to the issue.

I-45
On Friday, August 20th while traveling southbound on Interstate 45 just north of Corsicana, TX, traffic was detoured as a result of this accident. I don't know exactly what happened, but I did see a life-flight helicopter in the area.
