Spring in Texas!



Spring is my favorite time of year in Central Texas. This year has been especially delightful, because we've had two years of drought followed by a wet winter. The flowers are outstanding this year.

Today we headed west into the Hill Country near Johnson City and Fredericksburg. The bluebonnets are thick and beautiful!



I love how they form such a beautiful carpet under the trees and yucca.



I'm hoping I get enough chances to get out and see more of this amazing bloom year!

Joyous Spring!



This year my pear tree was laden with blooms - almost more than I remember from other years. After a longer and colder winter, the signs of spring are especiailly welcome.
