Crisis in East Texas

The cost of gas has gotten so out of hand, old cowboys have been trading in their pickup trucks for scooters. This is a common sight as gas has pushed over $3 a gallon. So sad.


OK not really, this is First Monday weekend. The town of Canton, Texas turns into the worlds largest flea market. The weather was wonderful today and it was packed. I will share a few more pictures over the next few days.

Funny! Well, it's one way to go. I think it maybe faster on a bike.

I like yesterday's vehicle better, although maybe he could hitch a trailer behind this one.....
