It looks as if the bluebonnet crop is a little early this year. Might not be at their height for the Ennis Bluebonnet Festival the 13th and 14th. What do you think?
Went out to Sunnyvale this afternoon. More on my photo site.
thanks for looking.
Jeff

Ha ha Love the mowing sign!

Can you guys tell me if they will still be around come the end of May? I'm from up around Amarillo, and we aren't graced with their presence up here.

NO. You will be lucky if they are still here by the end of April!
