Found some of Andy Thomas paintings on display at a store in the Ft. Worth stockyards.
Quite interesting-to former living presidents, of the other deceased presidents all were recent except for Lincoln. The democrat version is the same-two former living presidents, recent presidents and then Old Hickory to represent the past.

Watch Out for Wildlife
I have been considering a booklet of advice and information for those who need to know how to avoid vehicle wildlife encounters which result in damage to vehicles, injury to drivers and passengers, and fatalities for the wildlife. I came across this photo which demonstrates that some wildlife is not of the meek variety and they actually demand the right of way.
The single best way to reduce your risk of such encounters is to drive slower and when visibility is at its best-during daylight hours. Habitat awareness is key. Look for indicators that wild life is present-manure on roadway, tracks, road kills, warning signs, past experience, other vehicles.
In future blogs I will add to these to help you make 2010 a year without roadkill credits.
