Words
I wrote several months ago... "But as it always is, my favorite
part of any trip is taking the exit sign marked Waxahachie" ...
and the emotion lingers.

Wildflowers make
springtime special, and there's no place where Texas bluebonnets thrive
more than in Ellis
County. This morning as I drove to a nearby town, I passed along
roadsides carpeted by close clusters of blue petals as our state flower
made its spectacular debut. No good Texan is without a family photo
taken amidst bluebonnet fields, and during spring, traffic slowdowns
usually signal that a brilliant blue haze is just over the horizon.
Texas stretches across plateaus, rivers, bayous, beaches, hills and
valleys, but at least for me, none defines her beauty more than the
bluebonnets right here at home.
