THEME DAY - City Daily Photo

I am participating in the City Daily Photo event - Theme Day for February 2015.

The question is:
If you had to leave forever the city from which you usually post, what would you miss most?

The Iconic Water Tower

Honestly... I'd miss the people the people the most. Kyle, Texas has some of the most interesting, fun, wonderful and caring folks. It would be incredibly sad to lose that in my life.

How Times, They Change

I realized as I was sitting at the stoplight of 1626 & IH-35 that I had taken that photo before... but you'd never recognize it.
On October 30, 2006 I posted a photo of a lonely dirt road that lead to a ranch house.



Well.. that land has transformed. About the only thing you'll see that is the same is the water tower in the background. This is going to be the new Seaton Medical Center... and there's a Lowe's Home Center there... and a Wal-Greens is coming... and more.



Wow... how times have changed. Two and a half years. I can't believe I'm so lucky as to be the person who just happened to come across a "daily photo" thread in 2006 and think... "Hey, that might be cool for Kyle." I've been able to take so many photos of the progress and growth this city has had in the last 3 years. Neat.

Water Tower...Go Lobos


In an effort to bring you EVERY water tower in town... here's a pretty sweetly decorated one, located across the street from Lehman High School.

Have I ever told you that Los Lobos is one of my favorite bands? But they're from East L.A., not East Kyle.

East rocks.
