I tried several different paths to gain access to this wonderful field of flowers today, but I was unable to find a legal path in. The best I could do was to take a long walk on the fence line. It’s OK, because the wildflowers were growing there too.
I got up early (for a Saturday) in support of the March of Dimes. The walk was fun, but the ducks at the lake were way cooler. I think they were in search of breakfast, but they were still friendly when they discovered that I was bearing no food.
This is a new experience for me. Trying a Starbucks next to the freeway that doesn’t have inside seating. The downside is that the wireless connection out here is lacking. The good thing is that it is a beautiful night to be out on the patio with my Caramel Frappuccino.
Here is one bonus to letting the grass grow tall in an empty field. Pink Evening Primrose wildflowers! Can you spot the Lady Bug in the third photo? That was a pleasant surprise.
I got a swim in today.
I ran across a single large cactus today that had three awesome yellow blooms in the works. Here is a photo of each flower.
Rosa’s Cafe & Tortilla Factory is defined by Google Maps as a “Fast-food chain featuring classic Mexican dishes & housemade tortillas in festive surroundings.” I think I agree with that summary. I was more attracted by the festive surroundings than I was by the tacos I ordered, however I will give this restaurant another chance with the hopes that I visited on an off night.
That time in Round Rock when you were photographing an awesome rainbow and you used some tropical plants to make it seem like you could be on a beautiful Pacific Island, but you didn’t fool anyone.
Wednesday evening. Go downtown, take a walk, stroll by the water tower, stop in for an orange shaved ice with sour spray, walk some more, admire the bats flying out in the moonlight, and finish off the evening by creating run-on sentences with too many commas.
