It is completely obvious that Inky will say and do anything to get attention. Even claim credit for ideas that are SO not his own. Yes…

This agapanthus bud in my garden is getting fatter and will soon burst forth as a beautiful bloom. / My grandfather loved agapanthus and called them “Aggies Pants”.

Agapanthus Buds
This is the memorial on Texas A&M’s campus for the bonfire tragedy. Since 1909 Texas A&M University students have worked together each year to build a massive bonfire. The stack of several thousand logs collapsed early morning on November 18, 1999, killing twelve students and injuring at least 27 others. Bonfire was cancelled that year. It was to have been ignited on Thanksgiving evening as a prelude to Texas A&M’s November 26 morning football game with The University of Texas.
I woke up one morning to catch the sunrise at Convict Lake and on my return trip to my campsite I decided to venture down McGee Canyon. It was still fairly early in the morning and I was exploring the area when this pack train wandered by, presumably on their way to bring supplies to some people in the upper areas of the canyon. The mountains of McGee Canyon are composed of metamorphic rock. On the left is Mount Baldwin and on the right is Mount Aggie.
This is a subpeak of Mount Morgan I guess, it’s unnamed. I was driving down a dirt road that leads into the canyon and the early morning shadows on this mountain just drew me in. I got out and took quite a few photos trying to capture it best. I think B&W works well with such a contrasty scene.

Well, he’s not so little anymore but will always be my baby and probably my most photographed subject besides my dog and my daughter! He had helped me set up the studio and so I just had to let him pose for me. He is so use to it anyway. haha.

I took a picture of my Father’s Aggie Ring Dance invitation and a picture that was taken of him after college that I combined in a frame. History of the Aggie Ring: One of the greatest moments in the life of any Aggie is the day that they receive their Aggie Ring. This moment began with the Class of 1889. The original ring is very different from the ring worn today. At that time several companies made several different versions of the Aggie Ring. It wasn’t until E.C. Jonas, class of 1894, designed a ring for his class that the ring we know today came into existence. It has remained exactly as Jonas designed it, with one exception; in 1963 the Legislature of the State of Texas changed the university’s name from the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas to Texas A&M University, and the name on the ring was changed accordingly. (My Father’s class was the last class to have “Texas A&M College”) The ring worn by all Aggie graduates is the same except for the class year. This serves as a common link for former students. When an Aggie sees the ring on another Aggie’s hand, a spontaneous reunion occurs. The Aggie Ring is one of the most symbolic of our traditions. Everything seen on the ring represents a value that an Aggie should hold. On the top is a large shield, which symbolizes the desire to protect the reputation of the university. The 13 stripes on the shield represent the 13 original states of America. The five stars on the shield refer to the phases of development of any Aggie: mind or intellect; body; spiritual attainment; emotional poise; and integrity of character. The eagle symbolizes agility and power, and the ability to reach great heights. The large star on the side of the ring symbolizes the Seal of Texas. The five-pointed star is encircled with a wreath of olive and laurel leaves symbolizing achievement and a desire for peace. The live oak leaves symbolize the strength to fight for our country and our state. The leaves are joined at the bottom by an encircling ribbon to show the necessity of joining these two traits to accomplish one’s ambition to serve. The Century Tree- which is another A&M Tradition- is a Live Oak An ancient cannon, a saber, and a rifle are on the other side of the ring and symbolize how citizens of Texas fought for their land and are determined to defend it. The saber stands for valor and confidence, while the rifle and cannon stand for a preparedness and defense. The crossed flags of the United States and Texas recognize an Aggie’s dual allegiance to both nation and state. Traditionally, students wear their ring with the class year facing them to signify the fact that their time at A&M is not yet complete. During Senior Weekend at the annual Ring Dance, the student’s ring is turned around to face the world proudly, just as the Aggie graduate will be ready to face the world.
