Thought I would share this extraordinary photo/video with home-grown music.

Wyman, the photographer, used to live in the old jail in Benjamin, TX. The photo of the coiled rattlesnake appeared on the cover of a wildlife magazine in the 80's. He said, there were times he crawled a long way on his belly to get a good shot of a wild animal.
The music is by Doug Smith. Doug is from Petersburg , Texas and lives south of town. Doug plays by ear- He cannot read music, but has many CDs. A pickup accident left Doug paralyzed and he does not play anymore.
Most of the pictures were taken in the rolling plains (cap rock to Seymour , the Fork, 6666, and Waggoner Ranches). There are some scenes in Palo Duro Canyon.

Wyman Meinzer's - West Texas

Do "likes" get us points?

I just assumed so.

Maybe Wendel or Angel can clear that one up. But I want Angel to rest up a while first.

Until you max out. Then you automatically win a free trip to Hawaii to sit on your fat hiney on the beach with Angel and sip foofoo drinks until you pass out.
