>> My friends! For those of you not fortunate enough to live in Texas (I
>> can see your eyes rolling now), let me tell you the bluebonnets have
>> begun to bloom.
>>
>> Pat's are bigger and have more blooms because she has sandier soil which
>> they love. But even in my amended clay - they have started to bloom. In
>> a week or two, the roadsides will be rife w/ them! Just in time for
>> Jesse's visit, may be one of the few things she misses about Texas. And
>> when they are blooming alongside blue anemone blanda, ipheions, Siberian
>> squill, grape hyacinths and vinca - well it's a beautiful blue symphony.
>> None of those flowers are large, as you know, but the different shades
>> are quite lovely and complement each other beautifully. How blessed we
>> are to know such beauty, even when it comes w/ the tariff of an aching
>> back. It's all worth it. I will try to get some pictures when everything
>> is "peaking". Now I'm off to get another glass of back medicine (spelled
>> Merlot) but just close your eyes and envision it!
>>
>>
>> blessings to you all!
