Yes, I have some Rose Bowl related photos to post. Dunno when I'll get to 'em, though. There's a lot of stuff to process. However, here's something I just have to post now:

'Went out to Bastrop to see the folks yesterday afternoon. As I drove onto their street, I saw this pack of buzzards (okay, technically, it was probably a flock of 'em but do you really think of buzzards as roaming in flocks?) circling around overhead. Dad said they're there a lot...that there must be something in that little bunch of trees and hills that makes for fun air currents. Or something. Maybe there was some lovely little piece of road kill waiting to rot to just the right amount of rotten-ness. I dunno. But, I couldn't take my eyes off 'em. Their wings would glisten in such a cool manner in the setting sun. So, I grabbed my camera and went to work. Most of the shots weren't very good at all. The sun was making it's way westward and wasn't being very cooperative. And, the birds would flap at just the wrong moment. And, it went on. But this shot. Cool, eh? I like it! Heh.
