Thank you so much for sharing the beautiful photos. I am originally from Texas and seeing those flowers made me feel good.

None down here in deep South Texas.

We were just up to Brenham & Round Top last week for the antique shows, I'm sad to report the bluebonnets are very sparse so far. The dry fall has really hurt the blooms. Friends in the Hill Country said they are seeing very few bluebonnets this year :(

Beautiful! I lived in Texas when I was growing up and I love the bluebonnets! Thanks for sharing.

My husband loves his blubonnets almost as much as he loves Texas. Here in Ok. we do not see them very often. Thank you so much for the view.

I'm back home visiting and so enjoyed the bluebonnets on the drive between Dallas and College Station. I love Texas!

Had no idea what a Texas bluebonnet was. Have read about them in books and such, so now I know. Thanks so much for sharing.

If you happen to head down Hwy 287 through Waxahachie and Ennis...keep your eyes open for the bluebonnets. They are in abundance along the roadway. And here in northern Hill county, we are finding large patches of them....maybe we got more rain than other parts of the state last fall?
