BLUEBONNETS - A TEXAS THING

Here in Texas we are blessed with beautiful wildflowers on the roadside during the spring. In case you weren't aware, bluebonnets are our state flower, they are protected. We teach our children that you can't pick them, but you are always welcome to strike a pose among them!

Nothing says welcome to Texas like 3-digit weather. After spending nearly 2 weeks at more that 5,000 feet above sea level, I find myself having to get acclimated to our weather again. The temperature wasn't as cool as we had expected in Colorado, but it felt so much better than this TX heat. As is always the case though, all good things must come to an end, and so here we find ourselves back home, thankfully safe and sound. All in all we had a great time. We arrive home at 5:00 am this morning just under 4,000 miles in 14 days. I think we have become road-trip warriors.
