The Crockett Hotel is named after legendary Davy Crockett, soldier, politician, and frontiersman. Davy Crockett is a larger-than-life person and folk hero. He was a man’s man. Davy Crockett was a big hero in the Texas Revolution, and he ended up dying in the Battle of the Alamo. Legend has it that Davy was found in the barracks dead surrounded by sixteen Mexicans that he took out on his own. Davy was truly a warrior and fought for what he believed in without being polished or prideful like some of the other politicians that would damage his political career. There is so much to learn, see, and do around the Crockett Hotel as it sits right next door to The Alamo. It was built in 1909 which makes it over 115 years old. To book a stay in this historic hotel or to learn more visit their website https://www.crocketthotel.com/ Here are a few photos from my visit. Enjoy!
Recently, I stopped in for a visit at the McNay Art Museum. From the moment I drove up to the grounds I was in awe. There were sculptures, beautiful gardens, multiple paintings, and a mansion I was ready to walk into and see. Upon entering, I learned the mansion had two wings. A new wing and the original mansion section. In the new section, I viewed the de la Torre brothers exhibit. It was creativity on a higher order level. It had a deep meaning that some I’m sure will struggle with. In the original section, I found many historical art pieces and a beautiful mansion built like it is to last forever. It was exciting to see original Picasso and Monet pieces. This museum is a new favorite of mine and I’ll definitely be visiting again.

To the east of Houston is a small freshwater reservoir that is stocked with mainly bass, crappie, and red-eared sunfish (aka-shellcracker) because they like cracking snail shells. The lake is also home to numerous mammals, birds, and reptiles. It’s a beautiful place especially for those looking for a no-wake lake (slower than 7 m.p.h.) for paddling kayaks and canoes. I have been fishing it for over 40 years and find the trips their quiet, peaceful, pleasant, and enjoyable. Here are a few photos that I shot last time out capturing the lakes beauty. For more information about the reservoir, you can visit here https://tpwd.texas.gov/state-parks/sheldon-lake
On a recent seven-mile hike, I decided to capture textures while shooting photos. All around me I was amazed at the different textures. There is so much to see when one truly opens their eyes. For me when I look around the world, I see God’s hand. The complexity of every single organism. The design and innerworkings of every creature benefiting from each other. Often, I think of this verse, Romans 1:20,” For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So, they are without excuse.” I hope you enjoy these photographs as much as I enjoyed shooting them. 2024 Albert Moyer, Jr., Photography
It had been a while since I visited the Houston Polish Festival and this year my heart was calling me to it. My brain was imagining the scents and flavors of Bigos and the fresh smell of delectable baked goods. The comradery among the Polish and their welcoming nature always makes for a great time. The festival offered a really nice silent auction with many authentic Polish products direct from Poland. The grounds had many booths with hand-made crafts. The dancing and music created the vibe of joy and happiness. For more information on next year’s fest visit https://www.houstonpolishfestival.com/ And as always here are a few photos from my adventure.
