Old Bank Building

The vacant/abandoned bank building was seen in a totally forsaken small town.  I thought it was wild that there was a cactus growing out of the roof.

Cactus Mural

In Coleman, Texas there is a mural on the outside wall of a business that's all cactus and flowers.  It's really beautiful and it faces a large parking lot.  Everyone who parks there can see this beautiful artwork.

Pink Door and Cactus Graffiti

This pink doorway is on the side of a building that is covered with cactus graffiti.  Some of the cactus has blooming flowers, some is just cactus.

The side of the building is about two blocks long and the graffiti is beautiful.

It's located in Coleman, Texas.

Succulent Plant

I went to lunch with some friends today and right outside the entrance of the restaurant was a HUGE succulent plant in a planter.  It was pristine and really beautiful.  I only had my cell phone camera with me but I made a close-up image of the plant anyway.

There were about 12 of us and we had a really good time.

This morning I played PickleBall, then went to line dancing class and then to the restaurant.

It's cold here now and there's a forecast for snow on Thursday. At least the snow and cold won't last long, which is a relief, except that summer is brutal.

nature's beauty all round if we have the eyes to see

Cholla Cactus in Pecos National Park, New Mexico

I've never seen a cactus like this.  They were all over the park and most of them had yellow flowers blooming.

Grateful for:

safe travels to New Mexico and back
