  • Return trip

    Return trip to Bastrop, Tx.


    "They Don't Fade"


    "Bastrop Bridge"


    "Which Way?"

    I'm still here in Bastrop. I'm staying at the Pecan Inn here...AMAZING!  I suggest staying here if you ever come down this way.  But these photos are from Down Town (historical District)  Enjoy. :)

  • I have almost completed my "up to-date" printed portfolio.  It's hard because I'm constantly taking photos, so it's hard to keep printing.  But when I complete it, I'm visiting my father.  I'm going to show him and ask him if I've lived up to my potential.  I could careless about his answer.  But to see the look on his face when he sees what I've created.  What has sprung to life from MY imagination.  I know for a fact he'll be blown away.  I know for a fact he will be jealous.  I just want to see that split second look on his face and the shock after I had it over to him and tell him happy belated father's day. 

    What an honor it is to receive a gift from your child that they made.  From beginning to end.  That picked out every little detail, that sorted through two and half years of work for those perfect pieces.  That made the book that they will sit in.  (yes I am actually making the album they will matted in). 

    Does he deserve it?  ha, no.  But he is my father and he can't say I didn't try to involve him in my life.  I want him to be proud of me, and in a way this is keeping me from being bitter towards him.  Yes I know this will sit in a closet or a shelf collecting dust or get lost among his other collections of  random stuff.  But I feel that if I give him something, the anger he feels towards me, the hate he's developed over 18 years will lessen even if it's slightly. 

    I know it's a gift I should give my mother.  (She's getting one too)  But I think this will be good for the both of us.

  • Dear Dad,

    Dear Dad,

    I hope you wake up from the dream you're living and realize you have no children.  I hope that if you do you also realize that we're not just a phone call away.  We're more than that.  What's required you can't give.  We want hugs, we want attention, we want you to love us no matter how different we seem to be.  We don't like to be played with as though we were toys or pets.  You can't take us out of a box every so often and acknowledge our existence and expect us to feel the same way as before.  We've moved on.

     So Dad, if you want this day to be yours.  Please, start being the Father that we need.  Not some distant asshole that rips our heart out every phone call.  Because one day you won't be able to reach us.  Our numbers will be changed, our addresses, and two of us will had different last names eventually (hopefully).

      I love you.  This will be the first time in 7 years that I will personally wish you a happy father's day.  It will also be the last, unless you show improvement to your other children.  Stand up for them.  Show the love to them that I only saw in the corner of your eye.  I wait for the day that they come home not depressed, not angry, and not tearing each other apart.

    Still your loving daughter,
    Secca
