Exploring the Places No One is Talking About
Last weekend I visited Canyon, TX with my friends for WT’s homecoming in the new stadium. But there are a number of wonderful things in Canyon besides WTAMU. One of those is Creek House Honey Farm. A little shop and winery where you can sample and buy local honey and other products made with honey
Keltin and I love a good show but typically we go to symphonies and musicals but we changed it up this time and saw Mumford and Sons at the American Airlines Center. The music was fantastic and perfect to sing along to. They opened with Guiding Light and played a nice mix of new and
Bear and I had a free Saturday while Keltin did photography and radio for Tarleton sports and I decided the day would be best spent outdoors and in nature. We spent most of the day hiking the Fort Worth Nature Center and Refuge. It is $5 per adult to enter and dogs are welcome as

On the same beach trip where we took the wonderful photos of an energetic Bear there was a sailboat beached well… on the beach. Name: Black Pearl, or I think it was anyway. Said boat made for some great shots. All of these were taken with our 70-200mm lens. My sister met up with us
Bear loves to run and swim. Most of the time it is in lakes but he is a fan of the beach too. Keltin took these in Galveston last time we were there. If you drive past the seawall and the places where you can pay to drive on the beach you can find some
