In Ft. Stockton I happened on Bella Terrazza, a wonderful shop that had
all sorts of cool decorations, metal sculptures, and adornments. You can
find it on the web. The proprietor, Amy, has a huge collection of items
from all over the US Southwest and Latin America. While she attends to
her shop she also registers local voters, shows them how to fill out
ballots, and encourages them to vote for Beto O'Rourke who is trying to
unseat Republican Senator Ted Cruz in the Nov. 6, 2018, election. I wish her
shop and her politicking all success.
She's posing here with some of her favorite items, among them the large cross inlaid with colored glass beads, which is not for sale. I was drawn to her shop by the beautiful and colorful items she had on display outside. I bought the small metal cactus sculpture that's now in our backyard.
