Hatch Chile

Hatch chiles are in season right now. This past Saturday morning I stopped in to the local HEB. They had set up this to roast some Hatch Green Chile. I had never seen this done before and I wound up staying and watching for about 15 minutes. Later that day I stopped by Whole Foods and they were roasting some as well.

Great Hills Baptist Church

A portion of the Great Hills Baptist Church. I liked the way the cross just peaked out above the trees like that.

Garden of Hope

This is part of the Garden of Hope at the Great Hills Baptist Church. I came across it last week while attending a car show. I find it wonderful that there seems to be so many places around the Arboretum area that have been created where you can go to simply "let it all go".

Arboretum Cows

This is Texas.  And it's Austin.  This means cows everywhere.  Even at the Arboretum.  These are by artist Harold Clayton.  There are others in Irving, Dallas and Milwaukee, WI.  If anyone from Milwaukee has a picture of the cows there, please send them my way.  At some point I will get pictures of the ones in Irving and Dallas as well.

Water Fountain at the Arboretum

It's a bit hard to tell, but it looks as if someone put some soap in the fountain at the Arboretum.

Time Capsule

This is the capstone covering the Trammel Crow time capsule at the Arboretum. Retail tenants at the time donated items to be placed in it and is thought to contain video clips of newscasts, a salt and pepper mill and a certificate of deposit drawn on Interfirst Bank to benefit AISD once it matures. No one is sure about the amount. It is to be opened in 2086.
