House Concert in the Sandbox this Friday (4/25)

April 25, 2008 -
Raina Rose returns for a one-night engagement in the SandBox Inn sandbox at a meet and greet for alderwoman JoAnn Evans (who we very much hope will get your vote on May 10.)
Things will get started around 5:30 PM with the Saturn Street Strummers. There will be refreshments provided and we will be passing the hat for Raina. Please come and bring a friend!
This singer/songwriter from Oregon entertained 30 or so plus last time she was here (back in Sept. of 2007) and we are very fortunate to have her back for a return engagement.

Bike-Cam 2
Once again, I pedal into the heart of spring break, where I have fun at the expense of a bull-riding lassie who is probably not what you would call "army strong" material...

Bull Riders

Coke Beach
Coming soon to a beach near you.... well at least to a beach near me.... see you at spring break!!!!
Free T-Shirts
I wonder how many free t-shirts are given away during spring break?....
Amazin' Walter... worlds oldest spring breaker...
I'll be on the beach again this spring break covering all the fine babes on the beach... er... i .... mean.... photographing...
Texas Flag
Texas Week....
Piping in the Beer!!!!
This ingenious rack for beer bongs was a chick magnet... probably gets about 10 cases per hour though...
Who owns the beach?...
I guess this is a public law?... private property?... i notice there is no ordinance # on this sign... hmmmm!
Easy money for the city....
If they are ever going to enforce this law now is when they will... they have a lot of extra people sinning and a lot of extra people riding herd...
it's simple... don't take glass to the beach.... duh!
Fragrant Memories
This is the ghost of spring break past.... a simple reminder... to those who are coming and those who have been before... come on down... live it up... be careful...
