SOLD

After 10 years, it is time to say good bye to the Austin house. We had many good times there and worked so hard to fix it up. I'll never forget the deck that we built and all the fun parties we had every Spring.

Good bye front yard and the native Texas plants and wildflowers:


Good bye back deck and the numerous parties with Austin friends that we had on that deck:


Good bye Little Walnut Creek and the spring flash flooding in Texas:


Onward to Arkansas, y'all

Random Notes

So, over the course of a few weeks I've sent myself some random notes that I have been meaning to post up here regarding Battle. I'm finally going through and catching up on emails so now I can delete this one.

A statement of settlement systems taken from Banning 2002: Understanding settlement systems requires that we go beyond the simple documentation of where sites occur and attempt to understand how they may have operated in a settlement system. At a minimum, this usually means gaining some sense of the site's function.

Also, I think I might have mentioned this before but the Red River is highly dynamic and understanding the influence of geomorpholocial processes in the region is imperative. I need to speak with Dr. Guccione.

I made a note to myself to create a 3D elevation model using ArcScene. Not sure how to approach that but I think it would be good to include.

Lastly, a note from Jamie on Battle Mound old aerials - "I seem to have a set on aerial "indexes" which has thumbnail sized pictures of each aerial in my station territory...this would be handy for figuring out which aerial you need, but little else."

All for now.
