We see Blue Bonnets.....


If you have even been to Texas in the Spring and seen the wonderful and vast array of wildflowers banking the highways and fields......you will understand how sad we were to think that we were to miss them. There is a horrific drought to be sure...and we are a bit early also....BUT..today we saw Blue Bonnets along the highway! At first we were not sure...but we pulled over and saw them up close and took some pics...yes...a few hardy blue bonnets along the very edge of the highway! Our guess is that they are there cause of whatever small amounts of rain has fallen in the past year, when the cars go by, it splashes on the edges of this two lane highway we were on. Today they were predicting rain and it was very hot and humid.....but no rain here. It is in the forecast for the next couple of days but very low chances.

Pray for Texas and the other states in this horrible drought......And pray for us as we try to use the this slllloooowww connection. We are using some words that we should not be using! Esp Mike!!!

I will down load a picture of the blue bonnets we saw....not a very good one...but a hardy little flower growing on the very edge of the road with brown parched grass all around it. Love to all.....Judy
