Wyman Meinzer's "West Texas"… (Video, Photo-Essay)

You may not be a native Texan, but after watching this beautiful photo-essay by west Texas’ official state photographer Wyman Meinzer, you’ll wish you were.  I suggest you turn up the volume, click on the “full screen” icon on the lower right, and keep a box of Kleenex handy.  If ya’ll aren’t dancin’ in your seats…..well, ya’ll haven’t got a pulse!
This is dedicated to all my Texas buddies….you know who you are. 

Happy Birthday, Dear Sundance! Happy Birthday to YOUUUUU!

Sundance sez "Awww shucks".

A little birdie just told me that today the Cracker household is celebrating the birth of our very own Sundance Cracker!  Please wish him a very happy day!
