It's spring.. when the air makes you want to get out and go places


like the Palo Duro Canyon. Here are two of my three, enjoying a bike ride to the "Lighthouse" a year or so ago. Someone told me once it is one of Texas's best kept secrets. I don't know about that but it certainly is a great place to visit if you like the outdoors. Plenty of walking and biking trails, at different levels of terrain, cabins and camping sites, horseback riding and even a few geocaches! There's nothing quite like waking up in the morning to see the sun come over the canyon rim, while cooking breakfast on the grill.

And then a pic of the youngest, as we take a break climbing
one morning.

Check this one out for a great vacation at a good price. If you don't
like camping, there is a nearby town with plenty of hotels.

(I would post the snake picture but some people don't like those. However, we never saw but two snakes in all the times we were there so don't worry about it.)

James sent me flowers for Easter! They are so pretty... this pic really does not do them justice, not one whit. Posted by Picasa

Easter eggs?

I don't know how the rest of the egg hunts here in town worked out today, what with the icy stuff on the ground but.. I found some!!
Hope momma duck manages to hatch these out. Posted by Picasa

Easter weekend

Easter means spring, right? We didn't have a white Christmas even!

Keeps us on our toes - scramble to get the cold weather clothes back out,
turn the furnace back on.. yada yada yada..Pretty isn't it?

Before long I will be seeing these again in my front yard! We've had inches of rain and the wildflowers are beautiful here this year. Posted by Hello
