Gone Country for a BBQ in Pattison, TX
Sometimes you need to get out of town. Had a great time in the country with much better views from a good friend’s front porch. Out west of Houston in the small Texas town of Pattison.

Great Places to be When it’s 110+ in the Sun
Say what you will about cows, but they know where to go during a hot South Texas
summer afternoon. In the shade of a big Live Oak tree, or better yet, the creek !
Pasture and creek near La Ward, Texas.

Happy Trails to You !
Scene from a pasture taken off Texas State Highway 172 between La Ward and Weedhaven, Texas. Makes me think of the 1989 song by Chris Rhea called “Texas”
“Warm winds blowing, heating blue sky
And a road that goes forever…I’m going to Texas”
