HER WORK AND LIFE.

 

The LIFE

From San Antonio to South Padre on the Texas 100 you cannot miss Bobz World.
On a long road with not much scenery you cannot miss the building-sized seahorse, King Kong, and brontosaurus that line the building that Bob’s world appears to be in. They almost pop out of nowhere and unexpectedly that you question if dinosaurs and giant mutant sea animals are really in existence in this small town.
My cousins’ kids and I decided to stop by on the way back to San Antonio.
It was another gift shop lined with the many cliche and repeat tourist items covered in shells or neon wording in a Costco size way (because everything in Texas really is bigger). And for $7, you can see their exhibit.

The most random things put together, ever.
From a sword collection, scenes from places in the world, to celebrities, in-case-you-didn’t-know-what-an-alien-looks-like exhibit and this is what baby Jesus and the Civil War looked like type stuff. It was the: if you aren’t sure what these things are, well here it is exhibit.
I know some folks really don’t travel and not desire to. And some really never know what’s outside of their TV and don’t desire to. This was for those folks made by folks just like that. It was entertaining but also an interesting and slightly melancholy reality to look into.

Bruce Lee isn’t Japanese or a ninja, native Hawaiians are not white nor do tucans wander the streets and I doubt that Ray Charles was that small.
