What I Did Last Weekend

Here is a small post to show those that think Texas is flat and barren that there are some areas that actually do have forests. All of these photos were taken on land that my family owns in far E. Texas, which is the start of the Piney Woods belt that runs up into the northern portions of the U.S.

I went down there with my friend Droid to check out the property and perhaps find him a good spot to get a deer for the season.

The first photo is just a quickie shot looking down one of the "roads" that divides our property, which is on both sides of the road. Nice and thick! We had fun on the roads at night doing some mudding and just looking at the stars. You can see the Milky Way with the nekkid eye! Hard to explain it if you are a city person, but just sitting in the back of the truck under the stars and having a cold beer is very peaceful to me.

This next photo is a shot of our land where they had set up a logging operation to thin out some of the trees so that the nice straight ones would have more room to grow.

We also did some mudding in the truck and the next day we found this little morsel on the inside of the door. We have yet to figure out how this happened.

And last, but not least, here is another shot of some of our land while Droid takes aim on a target that we had setup. As you can probably tell, it pretty much requires a truck to get up in there.
