Tis the Season


There are some things that are distinctly Texas to me. One of them is "Blue Bonnet" season. In the early part of Spring the Hill Country (the area near Austin and San Antonio) is full of wild flowers. The ditches, the hills, the roadsides are littered with thick patches of blooming, colorful flowers. The state flower of Texas is the Blue Bonnet seen in this photo. This picture is really a poor representation of the thick, beautiful patches seen in the country but it was taken as a "drive by". They're really a site to see!
