No, I am not talking about some strange images taken with a PUTT-PUTT! There was this phenomenon in the Twentieth Century called PuttPutt golf and miniature golf. My images are from South Padre Island’s still standing putt-putt course, one my cousins played more than I did back in the ’70’s but yes, I did play a few rounds at the geodesic domed putt-putt golf course on HWY100 – the main drag – on South Padre Island. Keep an eye on the Shannon Drawe Photography Instagram account, and let me know if you are interested in print purchase!
The clock is ticking on my time here on South Padre Island. While I have turned over the care and feeding of Los Pescadores Coffee & Outfitters to the new manager, I am also taking some time off while I am here – to enjoy life a little bit before heading back to Denton, Texas, in late April.
I can say the weather has been the worst here since winter sailed in and until now – in late March 2023. The winds for the entire State of Texas have been remarkable.
If you have not followed along, a ton of effort goes into my work and writing, and videos FOR www.texasflycaster.com. That site is the second longest existing effort in my lifetime. I started on that parallel adventure in 2007, and it still holds up after all these years. It seems fly fishing is one of those things that not everyone thinks they can learn by watching YouTube videos – unlike the intervening years of photographers who … come and go, and come and go.

I do have the opportunity to adventure down here – finding unique architecture, like the Gulf Coastal A Frame houses that used to be ubiquitous on the Island..
