Wet

It has been very wet since the last storm. This little friend's home may get flooded. It is very strange to have him claw above your head, trying to find refuge.

Inflatable Art

Accidental found while doing research on inflatable toys, objects, molds........ In these case, Wind Art maybe a better name, since it's the dynamic of the subway gives the monster life.

French Quarter

Heard a lot about how bad the hurricane has done to New Orleans 3 years ago.
Glad to see the result of the rebuild.
We know he must be Ha Gau reincarnated. We just don't know he can weave.
Yes, this is the Forrest Gump theme restaurant. And their Cajun shrimp on rice is very good.

Out of the desert



It rained on and off the whole way home (mostly on). I found driving in the rain on highway is very hypnotic, windshield wipers surely does its' magic. Good that we decided to make side tours to New Orleans and Pensacola.

Desert VI - Cactus

They're called "Prarie dog". People in town hate them, since they dig a lot of holes in the field. But, people like me who have never seen one before think they are cute.
There may be over a hundred of windmill around the out skirt of town.

I think the Desert series is not complete without a cactus picture.

Desert V - Big Spring





This is the 7th time they have flown here. I guess other than the unlimited supply of sun shine and heat, Big Spring has it's small town charm. Even the waitress in Pizza Hut knows about the event, and said she will bring her family to watch again.

Desert IV - broken wing




Here you can see our little princes. Unfortunately, one broke his wing and his arm yesterday.

Desert III - "No Land" Land

Imagine that, the sun is getting low, you've been break neck flying for the whole afternoon, traveling at great speed and covering huge distance. Every inch of your muscles ache to the bone, all brain cells orchestrate reasons to land. But, your soul is in Nirvana.

All of a sudden, after 180 miles of desert flat land, there's a great canyon right in front. All you can see is amazingly beautiful, but dangerous " NO Landing Zone" land. Even though you might get really lucky with a landing, there's no road out.

Here comes the struggle every man in history has experienced before. Do I take the leap of faith? Committed to the destiny, even I cannot see the other side, even there's no return? or you will take a rest on this side of the canyon, and call it your destination.

Desert II


While the sun is going down, here comes another character in the little prince. No, I decided not to get too close to get a better picture. At least not this time.
