Down To Pink

Two more rows done, including pink half-Rhodes.

Reflected

If you look closely at the ornament, you'll see the Natural History Museum reflected in it. 

On The Rig

 Just off the quay in Galveston there's an oil rig that's been repurposed into a museum.  It's called the Ocean Star, and it's a pretty neat place.  There are a lot of very detailed and beautiful models of oil rigs and ships.  The process of drilling offshore, from finding oil through production, is detailed in the museum.  As the museum's sponsors are various businesses related to oil, the perspective of the place is pro-oil.  At the same time, it gives factual information regarding the process and how people work and live on oil platforms.  Definitely worth the visit.

Pumpkins All Stacked

 Another ornament all finished.  If you remember, I finished this piece while on home leave in the US.  I finished it into this ornament as a late Christmas present.  It came out pretty well, I think.

Still Winging It

I am still winging it with the peacock.  There are about fifteen more rows to the bottom of the page, so I've been making progress...

Panera Again

 Driving from Tennessee to Texas, we stopped in Alabama for lunch at Panera.  This time, it wasn't nearly as good as usual.  Who ever heard of orange colored mushroom soup?  It didn't taste very good, either.  Andreas' bread bowl was meh.  My salad, at least, was decent.

Inland Naval Museum

 Evidently, Admiral Nimitz was born and raised in Fredericksburg, Texas.  Because of this, there's a museum!  It's big and one part of it is a memorial to Nimitz himself.  The larger part is a museum of the Pacific War.  I only took two photos with my camera.  Andreas, when he processes them, has more.
