A little back road driving...

 

I took Michael over to a friends house about an hour from us and was stunned by the fields of bluebonnets, oh so beautiful!!

Bluebonnets everywhere...

 

 

I turned off the main highway and took to the back roads...

 

 

 

 

 

One rather large Momma cow!

 

 

Indian paint brushes here and there too...

 

 

 

 

 

Who are you looking at?

 

 

I think I could spend all day here...

 

 

The fields were covered in blue...

 

 

Old Brahma cow...

 

 

Railroad trestle...

 

 

Upon getting home I saw that one of Michael's rose bushes had bloomed!!

 

 

A bit windy today but absolutely gorgeous out!

Hope y'all have a good weekend!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pretty...

I do like some hanging baskets full of flowers...

 

I have 5 this year and I hope they all make it through the summer, oh so pretty!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Evening Light at Goliad State Park...

I prefer morning light. Evening light to me is so harsh, I like the warm morning light but here goes... what I found this evening at the State Park...

Around the house...

 

I had to stick around the house today waiting on a phone call...I grabbed the phone, camera and played with the Macro lens...I forgot how much fun the Macro lens can be!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Herbertia (Iris family) Greek God Iris, the messenger of Juno, who used the rainbow as her bridge between heaven and earth...

 

 

A little bug...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then I moseyed on over to the Prickly Poppies!

 

 

 

My favorite of the day!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

So many choices...So many colors...

 

 

 

Hope y'all are having a great day!!

 

 

 

 

 

Afternoon walk

 

I decided to walk up and meet Michael at the bus stop. Of course I took the camera and didn't make it to the bus stop. I didn't even make it half way before Michael came up on me and started grumbling that he had to walk (poor thing), oops!! But I did get some awesome photos!

 

 

I love Spring!!

 

Wine cup

 

Lantana peeking out...

 

 

I love Texas Wildflowers, there are just so many!!

 

 

Bordered Patch on Dewberry bloom...

 

 

I spotted this daisy and as I was getting ready to take a photo I saw the petals moving. Then up popped this beetle...Cool!

 

A little mixture...

 

 

I spotted this leaf in the dead brush but it wasn't a leaf...The inset shows it a bit clearer, a butterfly!

 

 

Sage

 

 

My favorite from the day...Beautiful!!

 

 

I was being watched by a Mourning Dove!!

 

 

Hope y'all had a great Monday!

 

 

 

 

Stormy skies...

 

I wasn't really paying attention today to the sky...Then someone text me and said there were storms going through Cuero Texas, hmmm??

 

From where we live Cuero is off to the NorthWest...Looks pretty ominous!!

 

 

Oh goodness we might just get some of that...and we did! We just caught the edge of it, the worst of it went to our North. The wind was terrible and at one time was blowing the rain sideways!

 

It didn't last long and then a rainbow to the East, beautiful....

 

 

Later in the evening we spotted this Alligator cloud, lol...

 

 

Then while out driving a back road the sunset was gorgeous!!

 

 

Home in the driveway and one last photo of the sunset, oh so gorgeous!!

 

We didn't get much rain but every little bit counts when you are in drought conditions!
