We're not in Houston anymore

I have a small collection of photographs I call "Only in Odessa." That's probably not true, but it's not stuff you see very often in the suburbs of Houston. To wit:

Surly pink-haired lady selling sweets at the Privoz farmer's market.

The range of fashion styles, from country babushka to Dolce & Gabbana is breath-taking.

Gypsies and beggars hang out to make a buck off your wedding party.

Tired of the traffic? Just drive it down the sidewalk.
