From the Show Horse arena at the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo grounds.

The lighting in this building was terrible. I was really pushing the limits of my camera. Shot with my Nikon D300 at ISO 3200! There is WAY more noise than I would like, but it was the only way to get the shot. (Handheld, with no flash).

The band "Two Tons of Steel" performed at the San Antonio Stock Show grounds on Feb 6th, 2010. They really got the crowd moving!

Front man Kevin Geil, shown here, describes their sound as “countrybilly”. For eight years, the band has been voted "Best Country Band" by the San Antonio Current. IMHO, calling them a "country band" falls far short of describing their musical versatility. These guys really rocked!

OK, I’m trying to get back to posting again.

Here is my Christmas present to myself – a "new to me" Acura TL with Tech Package. This car has just about every conceivable gadget.

"Eve" performs as part of the band "The Zydepunks". The group appeared at the International Accordion Festival in San Antonio, Texas.

The Zydepunks really got the crowd moving with their eclectic mix of music. The band’s musical style includes Yiddish riddles, Irish ballads, Cajun punk, and vocals in six languages!

If you get a chance to see this group perform, take it!
