Just a shot I took while driving down the road on my way to work. This is on Farm to Market road 1626.
I thought you might want to know EXACTLY where 1626 is...
Check it out on Mapquest.

WARNING - DON'T LOOK AT THIS IF A LITTLE BLOOD IRKS YOU...
They've got me in stitches!
I've got a real excuse this time....
Sure... I'm busy...and trying have a daily photo spot for Kyle is a little trying... I mean I do have a full-time job, I am the co-owner and managing editor of an entertainment Magazine, do some freelance writing, act at the Communications Chair at my church, and am an active father of two great kiddos... but my excuse for not having updated photos very regularly for the last week or so is... I had surgery to remove a cyst in my neck. It was a little more substantial than expected... so I've been a little out-of-sorts...
Here's two shots of the damage... the first taken as soon as I took the dressing off (last Sunday) the second taken yesterday morining. It's looking much better... and I'm almost off the Darvocet.
The first glimpse:

Kyle United Methodist Church New Life Center - #14 in the series
The drywall folks put this makeshift cross up at the Kyle United Methodist Church New Life Center as they worked on the interior of the building. After everything that has gone on during the building of this new construction, they felt compelled to do so. I thought it was a very nice touch.
You can see my tracking of the New Life Center being built by visiting #13 in the series and clicking backwards or clicking the photo below.
Here's the latest shot of the exterior I took in August.. (I really need to take a November shot... LOTS has been done.

Time for Christmas
Taken on 11/1/08 - Downtown Kyle is already putting up the Christmas decor... I got a giggle out of this one... it reads "DAYS TO GO" with a blank for the days... should they put up "48" since as of today (11/6) that's how many days until Christmas?

Here's some shots from Saturday's grand opening of the Old Town Gift Emporium.
The business is a mix-match of local and area artisans who lease space inside the store in order to sell their wares. There's some really neat art and clothing inside. It is located in the heart of the "downtown square" in Kyle and really makes the area have that small town feel. I hope they can make a go of this place. I'm pretty excited about it.
"Unattended Children will be given an expresso and a free puppy." Awesome.

Some of the jewelry.
John and Michelle Hawn (Owners) stand outside their store.

The Old Town Gift Emporium opened up on 11/1 in downtown Kyle, Texas with a big Dia De Los Muertos celebration. Lots of fun... booths... music... good times. Here's one of the folks who dressed up for the occasion. Dia De Los Muertos is spanish for "Day of the Dead" and it's a holiday celebrated mainly in Mexico where people pray for and remember friends and relatives who have died. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_of_the_Dead)
