A collection from all over the US of the full moon rising.
And just in time for All Hallows Eve, I got to see the Bat Bridge, i.e. South Congress Bridge, i.e. the newly named Ann Richards Bridge. (Austinites LOVE their triple named roads; should you ever visit, make sure to get explicit directions when trying to get somewhere.)
It wasn't quite the swarm that is here in mid-spring, but the atmosphere was still fragrant and swooshy.
After some spicy lemongrass tofu, got to check off another tourist thing by visiting the O. Henry house. Am working on a lesson plan for my jury trial class including his embezzlement charges....who knew he lived in Texas & had a criminal streak?
Ew to the bats!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, it was a bit ripe. But I was warned ahead of time to NOT take the lower trail....
ReplyDeleteAh, good old Ann Richards, God rest her.
ReplyDeleteMy words would have been malodorous and swishy; bat guano is something else...
yes, it even penetrated my mucus-filled head, so I KNOW it was strong.
