We're in the Lone Star State

You always know you're in Texas...because you'll see the Lone Star painted on just about anything. Within one hour of crossing the state line, we've seen a trailer painted like the Texas flag...a mailbox...a roof of a house...and here is the picnic table at the city campground we're staying in:


We can't wait to see more! Some people have gotten very creative, as we've seen on our last drives through the state.

We're loving the wildflowers, too. Louisiana and Texas have given us such an eyeful already. Living in South Florida you forget what spring wildflowers look like since most of our flowers bloom year-round. Many of the interstates have had wildflowers blooming along the edge of the road; or in fields; or the campgrounds.

Still looking for my first Texas Bluebonnet on this trip.
