| The lake in the distance at Horseshoe Bay |
This is a great time to travel around Texas
because in Central Texas the wildflowers
are just beginning to bloom.
 |
| Bluebonnets beginning to bloom |
Today the temperature was hovering in the low 80s
but a front moved through and tomorrow morning
and Sunday morning will be quite chilly.
 |
| A patch of Bluebonnets that will soon bloom. |
This is the first day in about a week that we have
had sunshine all afternoon.
This morning started out quite cloudy & drizzly
so when the norther came through it brought
sunny skies and drier air... nice.
 |
| Wild Verbena |
Wild Verbena is a plant that comes up in various places
and I would like to get some started in our yard.
It is a pretty, wispy plant that is drought tolerant & deer resistant.
 |
| Desert Sage |
This fall I planted 3 Desert Sage and all the leaves fell off
leaving me to wonder if they died,
but this morning when I was watering I saw new leaves peeking out.
 |
| Another pretty view |
This house overlooks a beautiful scene with the lake below it.
Below is a photo of the house and it is quite something!
 |
| The people who own this house have a fabulous view of lake & golf course. |
 |
| View from one of the tee boxes on the course where the G-man will play. |
 |
| Gertie & the Verbena |
Gertie is still hanging in there with me on my jaunts
even though she is getting old... 14 years.
I can hardly believe it; time passes too quickly
and yet it feels like she's been with me forever.
 |
| Lovely silhouette |
The shot above may be my favorite of the day.
I like the stark image.
 |
| Barrel Cactus & wildflowers |
A couple of Barrel Cacti were nicely situated for a photo
and are sitting amongst flowers & other cacti.
 |
| View of Lake Marble Falls from River City Grille in Marble Falls |
After the G-man did a little putting and registered for
his tournament on Saturday & Sunday
we drove back into Marble Falls for dinner.
This was a nice restaurant with a great view of the lake.
We also drove around the old downtown area of Marble Falls
and I definitely plan to go back tomorrow to explore
the cute shops and restaurants.
 |
| Sunset overlooking the lake from our balcony... |
We had a beautiful sunset looking from our balcony
at the hotel... a nice day comes to an end.
