125/366 - Seen Around the Capitol

Black and White Political Arena
I know, kind of an oxymoron, right?
It's really just an artistic view of the Texas State Capitol.

 Stars of Texas
Believe it or not, these ornamental fences were designed to keep livestock off of the Capitol Grounds!

121/366-Sunrise, Sunset

 River of Fog
We must have missed a beautiful day in Humboldt County today. I know the sunrise was gorgeous!

Sunset View
Our hotel window view while enjoying in Austin. It's strange to be staying in the "big city". Even when we lived here, we didn't spend much time downtown. I'm going to try and make up on lost "tourist" time while visiting this week!
