lose your hat?

 

Lose your hat?  I spotted it yesterday on this post near FM 2060 and Sun Road east of Abernathy.  Of course, with the winds today, it's probably in Petersburg!

cowboy day at the fort

 

There wasn't a big crowd at Cowboy Day at Francisco Fort in La Veta.  In fact, I caught this cowboy napping at his station.  Francisco Fort Museum is a collection of buildings, artifacts, and collections.   Founded in 1958, the museum is situated on the site of the original adobe fort, built in 1862.

larry's hat

 

Every gentleman around town needs a top hat -- with feather.  This is the one worn by the virtuoso of the Tornado Gallery -- Larry Simmons.



birthday greetings

 

Today would have been Buddy Holly's 79th birthday.  The Buddy Holly Center celebrated with live music (playing Buddy tunes of course).  Bundt cake and root beer was available (and real beer at the cash bar).  Lubbockites came out to wish this native son a happy birthday.
