Picking up where we left off. Same walk. I'm over by Minute Maid Park.











Mount Houston. This peak is now claimed in the name of the Unholy Empire of jfre81. Recognize.

























Outside Toyota Center. Scalping is legal. They just have the right to remove you from the venue. But if you stand across the street like this...



...you can hawk ducats to the Springsteen show.















Somebody should come take me on in a game of H-O-R-S-E.

























































The infamous Midtown CVS. Let's see if this is still here in 10 years.













Scoop your dog's poop. Or die.





















Hey look I'm just a couple blocks away from where I was a little while ago. I did that a lot.





OMG LUK DERES SUMTHIN GOIN UP IN THE BIG EMTY SPACE MAYBEE ANOTHER CVS OLOLOL







Midtown east of Main is quite a work in progress.



Anyway, that's all, I'm a little tired and there's no more room on the card. Have a good one everybody.

I paid for it over the next couple days. Think I overdid it a bit. Maybe I'm getting old? Or maybe I just hadn't been walking enough...

...oh yeah, that day I was getting around without driving. At all. So when they say you have to have a car to get everywhere, well...

I'm just catching up here and loved your pics. I seem to recall you posting quite a few in the past that I loved too.

You do walk a lot dont you. I do believe you have mentioned that to me before. Keep that camera in hand..........always !!!
