Looking At A New Art Installation On The Tandy Hills While Thinking About Dancing With Elsie Hotpepper & BBQ

I'm so sleepy. Last night I was so tired I was in bed by 9. Then up by 5 this morning. I'm drinking iced coffee right now, to try and de-sleepify myself. I don't usually drink any stimulants in the afternoon, due to the stimulator having a too over stimulating effect.

I don't think I over-did the hiking on the Tandy Hills thing today, to the point of exhaustion.

Speaking of the Tandy Hills.

Today, under the Tandy Bamboo Teepee, which survived the 2011 Prairie Fest, still fully erect, there was an artwork that had been installed directly under the apex of the teepee.

Several Lake Worth Alliance water bottles had been duct taped together, along with some other materials, like the piece of red plastic you see duct taped in the lower left part of the picture.

I am not sure what the Lake Worth Alliance is. Does drinking water actually come out of Lake Worth? Isn't that lake heavily silted. With alligators living in it? I believe I have watched boaters and water skiers on Lake Worth from the outdoor patio of The Point on Lake Worth.

I think the water flowing through Lake Worth is the West Fork branch of the Trinity River. Eventually the West Fork joins up with the Clear Fork at the location where young J.D. Granger hopes to build a little lake in his mama's honor, called Lake Kay Granger. Or Kay Granger Pond. Or Kay Granger Puddle.

I don't believe the final name for the little lake has yet been picked.

Tonight you may see me at Rahrs & Sons Brewing Company watching a movie, listening to music, dancing with Elsie Hotpepper, eating BBQ and staying away from any Rahr & Sons liquid products due to my suspicion it gives me the hives.

But, right now I'm going swimming and lounge in the sun for awhile to make my skin produce some Vitamin D.

Support Prairie Fest 2009 by Drinking Rahr & Sons Beer

The next 2 Saturdays, those being April 11 and 18, from 1 - 3 pm, you can help support Prairie Fest 2009 by taking the regular Tour & Tasting at Rahr Brewery. For every pre-owned Rahr beer glass filled with beer, Rahr & Sons Brewery will contribute $2.50 to the Friends of Tandy Hills to benefit Prairie Fest 2009.

You can buy a Rahr Beer Glass for $5.00.

I am not quite clear on how this works. You buy the glass for $5.00 and then Rahr fills it for free? And then you have the option of putting some money in the donation jar that will be there? I don't know. The details are a bit sketchy.

Sounds like potential fun though.

Rahr & Sons is located at 710 Galveston Avenue in Fort Worth. Go here for a map.
