• Just a few  shots from our trip to Austin...sorry there's not more, but we had a great time.This was the best one yet...mebbe we can get some of the bonfire later, these were just some random cell phone camera pics we took. Enjoy! Swamp Mama's Fortune Telling Booth Fonty and Me Swamp Mama Herself   ps: oh, and the coloring invitation contest? The judging was at midnight, and I won first place (!!!), which was my choice of several fabulous  prizes...I chose a book on history by John Stewart, although i kinda wish I woulda went for the potato gun instead...i have won first place a few other times years back so it was a kind of good feeling. but the best prizes were yet to come. I had found some round playing cards a while back in little metal tins while out searching for scrap metal and treasure had brought them with me for door prizes...when we walking back to our camp after the the invitation judging, some random person walked up to me, smiled, and choose a random card out of a deck in the dark and said to me with a knowing look, "This is your card." I thanked them and took a look at it. It was the 8 of Hearts. I wondered what it meant. We went back to camp for a bit..started trying to analyze the circular shaped playing card...turning it round and round.. That's when it hit me, as a flash of color... last time i checked, 8 represented *infinity*... -wow, man- Infinite Love we got a good laugh out of that. we had a great time at the party, so many cool people...the human canvas won best costume in my book...i painted magic symbols on his shoes... and when it was finally time to rest a bit, we crawled into our tent in the early hour just before dawn, Hannah congratulated me on a successful evening and winning the contest, I said somewhat happily and sleepily, "I've won many times, babe." Right then a shooting star fell from the sky outside the window of my tent. It was a perfect ending to a perfect evening. Goodnight. ♥
