If This Aint Heaven . . .
Within minutes, you realize that you are in another world . . .
A place where color finds its way in, regardless of the drought.
False advertising! I looked in every nook and cranny of The Cowboy Store and I did not see a single cowboy for sale. (grin)
Ummm… Cowboy? Ya realize you are going the wrong way, right?
Come back here, dang it! (grin)
If this aint heaven, I don’t know what is . . .
A place where even the weeds are stunning . . .
And everything is bigger than life . . .
(Is his tongue in his nose?)
A feeling of peace overtakes your very soul . . .
And you feel as if you have somehow gone back in time.
Life makes perfect sense here.
Ready to ride off into the sunset . . .
Or just kick back with a cold beer at the local saloon.
But don’t mess with this guy in Bandera, Texas.
Lord have mercy, this ought to be illegal . . .

Nice!!! Things are looking up, eh??
Cricket Walker
LOL! That cowboy aint mine! Just a pic I took when I came across a trail ride in Bandera. Spending time in the country is always refreshing for me.
Eric Hubbard
Very nice Darlin! I have one of those Watusi Longhorns in my freezer!
PS Maybe the cowboys were in a back room!
Chance
Very nice pictures, they brought a smile this morning. Thanks for sharing your world!
Ellen
Cricket,
Did ya talk to him? I would have said “Turn around so I can get another picture of you from the front”.
I’m not shy!
Great pictures!
Cricket Walker
@ Eric – that must be one really big freezer!
@ Chance – It is soooo pretty up there. Wish I lived there!
@ Ellen – Oh heck no! I almost fainted when he caught me taking his picture from under the tree and tipped his hat at me. Still wiping drool off the poor camera. =)
Kelly
Awesome pictures. Your passion shines through
Cricket Walker
Thank you Kelly. It’s hard not to feel passionate about country life.
Vivian Ellis
Cricket, I’m trying to figure out who you are? Are you ex-COG? Did Ironsides clue you in about my Facebook accnt?
Regardless, I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed looking at your pictures here. You make me jealous, too. I live in SD, but it sure looks purdy there… wherever you were.
Cricket Walker
Hi Vivian! Since I don’t recognize your name either, I am guessing one of our friends on FB recommended us to each other.

[...] but Texas??? You crack my up. When people ask me why, I usually ask if they believe in heaven. http://www.cricketwalker.com/heaven/

Hello Cricket, this is such a beautiful post!
Amazing shots! I wish I can have wonderful shots like that.
So if that ain’t heaven, maybe that’s paradise then?
