Spring in the South

For those of you in the North recieving the last? blast of Winter - we in the South like to take day trips to the West, pose and photograph large expanses of wild flowers, and enjoy +80 degree weather. Traveling West on highway 290, one can find folks just pulled over on the side of the road enjoying large patches of bluebells and other varieties of wild flowers. You see couples, families, lots of little kids nestled in the flowers - and all on the side of the highway; and it's okay. After a few back roads where large ranches and country homes are peppered about, we passed through Brenham - and old town with a revitalized, antique ladden downtown. First settled by Germans in the mid 1800's, fed by the Sante Fe railroad and various industries, Brenham host many festivals or is in close proximity to many festivals throughout the year. Lots of renovated (some better than others) and some decrepit structures to photograph. Good day today.
