Another Roadside Attraction" is the name of a book I read in college.  I'm using it here because during my daily drive into Austin the phrase keeps popping into my mind.

Everyday seems to bring another "attraction" along Ranch Road 1431.

I track the seasons by the wildflowers blooming or grasses coming into there autumn splendor.  Sad to say, sometimes I can plot the love life of the raccoons or possums by the number of would-be Romeos who failed to get across the road the night before.

Everyday there is some small change, some difference that let's us know that the year is passing, the seasons changing.
