Summer Days


No one told me about the thousands of spiders we would have here at the lake. All kinds of spiders! And they love to build their nests on my back porch. They make these silky, feathery bags that look like you could just blow them away. But here I am with a power washer shooting 1500 pouds per square inch and somehow they still cling to the windows, the rock, everything!


Looking southeast, huge thunderheads under a perfect full moon.



Sun down.


I couldn't help but snap this picture of the beautiful crepe myrtles at the historic David L. Nutt home. This house was built in the 1870's by one of the founders of Granbury and was the town's first hotel. They owner liked to refer to it humorously as "the Nutt House." Some time later they built another hotel on the town square which is still called The Nutt House Hotel.

Hmm . . . maybe the Nut House could be the primary scene for the musical. ;)

I guess we can no longer refer to your house as the Nutt House then, can we? :) he he
