dexter house fruit bowls

on a road trip to southwest texas, there were votive candles purchased at a supermarket near the border in presidio. that was such an interesting and unforgettable experience. we were definitely in foreign territory. somehow i got to bring home the candles, maybe because i picked them out (clearly it was me, because there is a saint on a horse on one and a variety of small animals on the other). they have since faded, because they are sitting on my front porch.

every time i see the candles on the table at the dexter house, which if i'm not mistaken were purchased at the HEB on oltorf & congress, i am reminded of that morning, driving around the border, searching for firewood.

navasota windows

heeeeeey navasota posse, HEY!

do you remember them singing that during basketball games? navasota was frickin' intimidating. they all looked like adults against some scrawny, little pip-squeaks.

however, they have a nice, old, traditional, small-town downtown. these are some windows from one of the buildings.
