That… Which Matters Most

  • Top Photos of 2020, Please Vote. Round 1.

    I’ve never done this before, but thought I would give it a shot. Instead of me deciding which are my best top 10 photos of the year, I thought I would let my viewers decide.  So for the next several days, I will publish posts with three of the best… Listen ⇢

  • Along the Brazos

    In my walk near Baylor University, I took a stroll along the Brazos River. I am somewhat surprised that Baylor built their football sanctuary… er… stadium so close to the water’s edge. I can only imagine they anticipate it getting flooded at some point in the future. © Timothy J.… Listen ⇢

  • Buildings at Baylor

    Got close enough to Baylor University to take these shots recently. I’m doing my best to keep my distance from that University, for two silly reasons. The first: I’m a Texas Aggie. Not sure what kind of sensors they have laid out on campus to spot Aggies, but I didn’t… Listen ⇢

  • Mid-Week Monochrome #49

    It has been a while since I joined a challenge, so I thought I would remedy the problem by joining the Brashley’s Mid-Week Monochrome challenge, number 49. The subject is the First Street Cemetery that I was walking by near the Brazos River. My favorite picture is the one just… Listen ⇢

  • Latest Selfie

    Sometimes, I get lucky. This latest selfie was taken in the process of making a video for my special education students on folding clothes. I took the picture so I could adjust the focus, and lighting, etc., for the video. I didn’t realize how good it would be. The video,… Listen ⇢

  • The Tradition

    The smell of frying  chili pablanos in the cast iron skillet saturated the apartment, and perhaps, even the neighbors apartments. It’s a strong smell, and one that I love. It reminds me of Thanksgivings at my mother’s home in Lufkin, TX during the 1980s and 1990s. We didn’t have the… Listen ⇢
