No, not twilight the saga, but the time of day! Plus, there’s a half moon in this one. No vampires, but we do have bats flying around here sometimes. (This was taken on September 28, 2009 at the Mason District Park.) Go to SkyWatch Friday and find skies from all over the world.

Exactly four years ago today, we were driving east on I-40, heading home on our cross-country trip. We had heard about this sculpture called Cadillac Ranch, near Amarillo, Texas, so we decided to stop and see for ourselves. The experience was truly surreal, with the sun beginning to set, the flat, wide-open field, and of course, the 10 half-buried, nose-down Cadillacs. We were the only ones there, so that made it even more eerie. The art is ever-changing as visitors from around the world put their own touch of graffiti on the cars. We were there after the cars were supposedly painted pink in tribute to breast cancer victims, but as you can see, they were already covered with new layers of graffiti. You can still make out a general underlying pink layer though. The sculpture was created in 1974 by a San Francisco art collective called Ant Farm when they were invited by Stanley Marsh 3 (he felt Roman numerals were too pretentious), the owner of the wheat field, to create a unique piece of art for his ranch. They came up with the concept of placing used or junk Cadillacs, facing west, half-buried at the same angle as the Great Pyramid of Giza. The original sculpture was moved a couple of miles west, to its current location, in 1997. What does it represent? Don’t know exactly. You tell me. October 30th, 2009

This is water that’s running into Backlick Creek, which runs alongside the Ben Brenman Park. I’m not sure exactly where this water runs from, but I think it was used to cool a plant that’s in the distance. Go to SkyWatch Friday and find skies from all over the world.

I always notice these three trees that stand at the edge of the parking lot at the dog park, and they remind me of three siblings, except that they’re not fighting. I think they’re on good behavior until summer when their leaves fill in and they start to get in each other’s way! Go to SkyWatch Friday and find skies from all over the world!
