Oak and Wildflowers

Bluebonnets and the hint of coral from Indian Paint Brush are the welcome signs of Spring.  An enjoyment of that is anticipated each year in the South and Central regions of Texas.

Just Over The Hill

It has been a while since the rider has been home.  The dust of the road grits his entire body as the saddle squeaks and the ride tosses his body on the uneven road.  Relief is almost in sight, though.  Because home is just over the hill.  His horse will get a good feed.  The rider will get a bath, a warm meal, and the touch of the woman waiting for his return.

Broken Axle

The remains of a covered wagon that did not finish the trip.  The rocks, the ruts, the uneven roads, if they can be called roads, finally took their toll.   The family started out proud with great ambition and hope.  Wheels repaired along the way; Bearings replaced. And now, the broken axle finally caused the abandoning of this prairie schooner.  The dark, moody sky matches the despondency these pioneers must have felt as they scattered their belongings into other's wagons who were kind enough to make room.

Llano Ranch

The prairie grass sways in the breeze kissing the prickly pear cactus.  Outcropping of sandstone rock appear randomly. Cedar and other scrub brush p0p up as they will.  The tractor path and fence line take the viewer back to the old barns and farm equipment as cloud cover randomly shadows areas.

Poppies, Bluebonnets, & Cactus

The mixture of Texas flora overlooks a ranch still in operation but has seen better days.  The winding dirt road still has yet to be paved as it leads the passerby onto the next farm over the hills.

Single Oak and Bluebonnets

Like so many Texans, we venture out to see the wildflowers across Texas every spring.  Nothing makes the State flower stand out more than the Giant Live Oak.  Follow the path and see where else it leads.

Hill Country Sunset

The evening has come to a close. The warm sky glistens and distinct shadows have appeared.  The faint light reaching the path in front of you silhouettes the prickly pear cactus and the trees. A few birds make their way home while there is still light.  Better head back to the cabin as well before all of the light is gone.

Buzzards and Bluebonnets

What can say "TEXAS" more than the soaring of the Turkey Vultures over an already warm spring day with the State Flower highlighting the landscape?  We have time.  Let's walk a little further down the path.

Hidden Cactus

When one walks through Texas trails, there are always just a bit of hidden gems to be discovered.  But when discovering the gems, be sure to watch out for the little extras you may find in your adventure.  A brush with one of the Prickly Pear's pads will not be soon forgotten!

Forgotten

The old house has not been inhabited for some time.  The once proud home gave way to time and the elements.  The children moved to the city and the parents passed.  Now, what was the bulwark of the family is in disrepair and is just a memory forgotten.

Big Bend Country

The sun begins to break the ridge of the distant mountains.  The magic of the West Texas region begins to come to life.  The light grazes the high points of the prairie and the hills before you.  The old trail, barely used now, begs your attention.

Abandoned

The tired old homestead has run its course.  The asphalt siding has lost its luster, the galvanized roof has rusted and given way to father time, and the fence is only posts that once stood straight.  Proud owners have long gone from the land taking their dreams and their memories with them.
