was born in Denison, Texas but being in a millitary family, I was
raised around the world (twelve different stops). As a child in school
I was always proud of being born in and from the big state of Texas.
A constant reminder of my home state was the answer I would always
get from my Mom when I asked a stupid or very obvious question. In
a stern sarcastic tone she would answer "Are there Cows in Texas??"
Now, as I travel around Texas looking for things to photograph I pass
by many cows in many fields and I am always reminded of her question.
I answer it by saying to myself: "Of course there are!!" Besides
being a fixture on the Texas landsccape, they are also a very interesting
and lovable lot. |
