I have an idea for y'all to ponder:
A S'Mugger get-together!!??  The more the merrier!  The first weekend in November (Friday - Sunday), meeting up in Gruene, Texas!?!?
There's some excellent entertainment scheduled for Gruene Hall (the building in the center back ground of this photo) that
weekend, playing both Friday and Saturday nights:   Raul Malo

There are several nice lodging accommodations and eateries right in town within walking distance of the music venue:

Gruene is a delightful historic 'village' with photo ops galore, located @45 min. south of Austin.  The weather in early November is usually very comfortable.  Flights would be into Austin or San Antonio.

So...any of you that happen to see this, please share the information with  community members & other S'Muggers !
Maybe share the info on several of your upcoming posts over the next couple of months helping to make sure that 
everyone gets a chance to see it!?

Here's to the hope that this could be a Get-together of grand proportions!!

Wasn't able to take photos again today; so I'm posting another from Downtown Dallas.
Give us your answer to the question in the big orange dot!!
More Downtown polka dots!

Time constraints have necessitated the use of another photo from our Dallas trip as the DP for today.

In the heart of downtown Dallas stands a 29-story building which was built in the 1920's as the headquarters for the Magnolia Petroleum Company (later Mobil Oil).  This building became one of the city's most notable landmarks in 1934 when Magnolia Petroleum Company erected a revolving red-neon sign in the image of Pegasus, the flying horse, on the roof. That original Pegasus was replaced twenty years ago with a replica, which presently shines from atop the building: replica
This is the original Pegasus which is on display at the Old Red Courthouse Museum, only blocks away from its' first home.

We traveled home from Dallas today; my camera was in my suitcase, and I was too busy catching up after we got home to take any shots for today.  
Instead, I'm including another of my favorites from my trip to the Dallas Zoo.
I had been standing at the Penguin area, watching them and taking photos for quite a while, when a mother, father and these two children walked up.  Four of the Penguins looked over as they approached the glass, and one jumped in to swim over and check them out.  'On a stack of bibles', this Penguin was playing with these kids!!  The little girl was especially delighted; as was the Penguin (seemingly!).  
The rest of the images I had the opportunity to capture during this little playtime, will be uploaded soon!  Please check back again in a couple of days!

'The Kiss'
It was an incredibly beautiful day, and I spent most of the day at the Dallas Arboretum! Along the shore of White Rock Lake, east of Downtown, The Arboretum is 44 acres of beautiful gardens, flowers, trees, landscapes, topiaries, fountains, pools, streams, pathways through lush foilage, waterfalls, sculptures, and even a 'Pioneer Town'.   A true Diamond of a way to spend a day!!

I walked around in the downtown area again today.  However, I went a different direction, heading towards the Arts District. This photo shows a small portion of the front of an old church, above the entrance.  The diameter of the stained glass window is approx. 30 ft.

Spending the most time at The Nasher Sculpture Center, I really enjoyed the Garden area and outdoor sculptures.  Take a visit to the Sculpture Gardens, see other photos of this beautiful church and that side of Downtown: click here
