Another orange one in the can!

Hey... the color matches ;)
The hot-as-hell Texas sun is making it difficult to do anything outdoors. Regardless, Mama and Ol' Dad spent a few hours resurrecting the landscape lights from the apocalyptic electrical storms of the past two months.

The temperature climbed to 103 degrees by afternoon so we didn't last too long. Still, there were a few other creatures stupid brave enough to be out and about.

It's hard to tell from the photo but this may be the psychotic Whippoorwill that entertains us in the evenings.

Doesn't the orange-red glow make you yearn for a nice glass of wine and a Zagnut?

Yet another success story on the fixit front.

Babycakes and P had a sunset picnic last evening. It was so cute even the coyotes cried ;)

The sunset really set the mood.

Note the incredibly well placed shoes.

Babycakes practiced her mom-you're-embarrassing-me look.

P tests the bigger-bites-of-brownie-are-better theory.

P looked toward the horizon and gazed longingly at the setting sun. He closed his eyes and whispered, "Sit here... beside me." Hmm... reminds me of a number that is more than twelve but less than fourteen.

Mama and Babycakes took a break from the madness a couple of nights ago and decided to catch the sunset and, well... just be themselves ;)

The sun went down over the hill as expected, disappointing Flat Earth Society members across the globe, er... disk, um... well, you get the point.

Mama took it easy... just the way she likes it.

Mama and Babycakes proved that there is no escaping the power of DNA.

IMG_2987.jpg
Um... yeah.

IMG_2998.jpg
The eyes definitely had it ;)

Weary of Mama and Ol' Dad judging her purchases, Babycakes decided to get her own Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards Visa. Shades of thirteen!

With her new card activated, Babycakes contemplates a future filled with fabulous shoes and cheetah print stretchy pants.

The moon had an ominous glow, signifying that something was about to go down.

Just as Nostradamus predicted, El Diablo arrived on the scene ready for action!

El Diablo, hopped up on brownies and chocolate milk, couldn't contain the fury.

Objective-F snapped this pic at the Moscone Center in San Francisco this evening, confirming rumors that the sun rises and sets in the Apple logo ;)

We noticed a curious fiery band on the edge of the horizon a few evenings ago. Mama and Ol' Dad have a foot rub riding on whether it was a UFO or swamp gas.

It kinda looked like a Sea Monkey on fire ;)

The big barbecue in the sky cooked up a good one last night.

The sunset cast a beautiful red-orange hue over the entire sky this evening.

Dusk as viewed from inside the Tree House.
We here at Austin Tree House have a fondness for the special things in life... like sea creatures attacking from the sky.

I got the impression that he doesn't live a pineapple under the sea!

Tonight's sunset was beautiful with a huge amount of reflection in the clouds.

After the orange light faded, Der Gnome picked up the slack.

This evening the moon showed up just after sunset. It was a pretty unique sight!

Der Gnome observed La Luna's ascent in reverent silence.

Ol' Dad and Babycakes decided to catch the sunset and read Franny K. Stein.

No, really... look at the words not the sunset ;)

After the light faded, Der Gnome gave us his mighty orange salute.
