Going for a walk

My typical day involves breakfast (sitting), driving to work (sitting), work (sitting), lunch (sitting), driving home (sitting),  dinner (sitting), and maybe some reading, television or blogging (still more sitting).

One thing is clear. I need to get off my backside. Admittedly, I can't walk to work (17 miles is a little far) and since I spend most of my work life in front of a computer, I'm still sitting most of the day, but I can incorporate an after work walk into my routine. 

 I received a new lens for my camera for Christmas and I went out to play with it. All of this is within 10 minutes walk of my house and I didn't know it was there. I really need to get out more.  Who knows what else I'm missing?

Lake Houston
I think it's an eagle, or a hawk. Vulture? Are there any ornithologists out there?
Who thought hoses could be so decorative?

Fooling around with acorns

I was a little bored yesterday, so I went out looking for adventure and found...acorns.

This was in the Cullen Sculpture Garden, if you are looking for acorns, they have a lot.
