Here’s a couple of 3d pictures from our summer. You can view these pictures in a boggling array of formats, so if you’ve got a pair of 3-d glasses laying around, pull ‘em out. You can even try to cross your eyes to see them!

Stop by any time between 8am and 10pm CST.

In a pickle

Posted by Matty

This weekend, while at the McKinney Farmers Market, I was hypnotized by a vendor’s crate of pickling cucumbers. I’ve never pickled anything before, and to be honest, I like pickles, but I’m not c-r-a-z-y about ‘em. But Nancy is a pickle nut.

In 2000, Elvis wanted to know if Nancy would be my teddy bear. Likewise, he wanted to make sure that she would never step on my blue suede shoes. So far, so good.

But there’s more. You get to see sunrises, a trick I don’t usually manage, due to my fondness for sleep.

Also, you get to work on your pet projects once she’s settled down. (more on this project soon.)
