HEB Plus #3

Another update to the building of the HEB Plus.
For those who don't know... HEB is a larg-scale chain grocery store in Texas (I think it's expanded...but not sure). HEB Plus is a new idea..and it makes it more like an HEB+Target+Best Buy altogether... with a pharmacy. It will create some great entry-level jobs for the area...

If you click the photo you'll see the Part 2...

It's raining. It's pouring.. this poor person is snorting at the fact that they probably have to wash their car after driving in the mud.... Happy Friday.

I wanna ROCK!


I passed this pile of rocks the other day. Not quite sure what they are going to be... but when I do... you can bet I'll take a photo of it.

:)

Happy Tuesday

Allright... Who's AL?


The local BBQ joint, Railroad BBQ has an interesting decor. My wife, daughter and I go there every so often on a Saturday evening to see Bruce Fallgren.... who is the photo that started this whole Kyle Daily Photo for me... if you go back to August 8, 2006 (http://kyledailyphoto.blogspot.com/2006/08/this-photo-is-from-august-5-2006.html)

Hope all is well with your Sunday...

Ball Shaped Moon


Sunrise in by backyard. Or is this moon fall?
Happy Saturday.

I'm driving to Beaumont today... so no time for comment.
Happy Friday.

Country to the left...City to the right


This is kind of Kyle in a nutshell. We still have farms and ranches... but subdivisions are moving in...
Happy Thursday

LIARS!


These houses are being built NO WHERE NEAR Main Street!
LIARS!


For those who don't know... Main Street Homes is a homebuilder in the area. I just thought it was funny.
Hope you did too.

The future site of the Church of Life... which I guess... if you think of it.. it's the future site of the place that people who go there will be looking to find the answers in order to go to a favorable future site...

I tried to make this all...smart sounding and I ended up just hurting my head a little.

I thought this was an interesting thing... A circle of rocks about 10" in diameter. Not really anywhere near a home or somewhere people should be hanging out. Actually, it's bordered by a road on the left and the HEB Plus that's being constructed on the right.

We used to have a neighbor who's kids would do this in the empty lot near our house (which now has a home on it). We jokingly called it the "wiccian kids circle." Perhaps they relocated...and were driving through.

Lots of building going on 'round these parts. This is east of the highway...
Happy Saturday!

It's an All Mail Party


Here's a row of mailboxes stacked up together. This is in one of the subdivisions on the east side of Kyle. I drove through there the other day to take a look at the construction. It's growing... A LOT.

I kind of prefer having my own mailbox though...

HEB Plus... Part II



The first post I had from the HEB Plus was on January 29, 2007. Click the photo to go to the original post. I took this photo at some point in February... Probably about the 15th. There's a little more work done on it now. AND there's signs all over town saying they are hiring.

I'm just looking forward to having a pharmacy in town. My current pharmacist isn't too concerned with listening to customers it seems... but that's neither here nor there. I hope you're having a fantastic Thursday. We took the little girl to see Happy Feet at the $1 theatre tonight. Good flick.

I wasn't speeding


Yes, we do have a speed limit. No we don't know what it is.
This sign will soon be numbered and turned toward the road near the "Kyle Parkway Overpass" which is right next to the place where the new HEB Plus will reside.

It must suck to be this guy.
Happy Tuesday.

Lynn Wilkerson


Just in case you were wondering who's got the warped mind to come up with the things in the photos you saw in the last week or so... it's Lynn Wilkerson. The cars behind him in the photo now reside in the newest location of Freebirds... Lubbock.

Happy Monday.

Give Me An "F"


Here's another shot from Great Big Signs, where they create a lot of really cool things including almost all of the things you've ever seen in a Freebird's Restaurant. I'm still working on trancribing the interview I had with the co-creator..whom I'll post a photo of tomorrow.


Here's my official excuse for not porting anything in the last 2 days... I am now officially up to date on my Website.

Living In A...


If you're familiar with Freebird's World Burrito in the least... you'll recognize the "drop a quarter in the shot glass in this fishbowl" fishbowl. Well... this is the one that got it all started...the original fishbowl. Neat.

You Are Here


I really don't have to type anything... the sign says it all.

Foiled again


Yes, this flying dinosaur IS hanging out in the backyard of Great Big Signs... and yes it IS made of aluminum foil.
Any other questions?

Lady VanLiberty


Just in case you were wondering where the heart came from... and why Lady Liberty is tied into the back of a van.... the reason is simple. If you've ever been in a Freebirds World Burrito in your lifetime... you may have seen a Lady Liberty kind of like this one. Actually I took a photo of this one in Early February... just before it took a trip to Lubbock, Texas to be installed.

The next few days I'm going to post more of the really cool creations from Great Big Signs... an amazingly cool specialty design sign shop in Kyle. And by signs I mean... art installations that happen to be signs.

Oh.. if you've never been to Freebirds... click on the photo and you'll go to their page.

Broken Heart

And when he left her, he left a broken heart out laying in the field for the elements to have their way with. He was less concerned with matters of the heart and more concerned with what lay at the other side of the fence. It was what was on the other side that mattered. The home, life, work, and everything that made the world a better place in his mind. Ah, but that broken heart was a sore spot in his mind. It was always just laying there... on the other side of the fence... beckoning him."

Happy Friday.
