Brushy Creek Lake Park – Bluebonnets

IMG_4278

I went walking this afternoon at Brushy Creek Lake Park with a side endeavor of bluebonnet photos.  The walk was beautiful, and the bluebonnets were even more astounding.  I wish I could share the aroma of this field with you over the Internet.  There were more flowers than you could imagine, bees, joggers, dogs, grasshoppers, kayakers, and bikers.  A most lovely afternoon was had by all.  ðŸ™‚

Walnut Creek Hike and Bike Trail II

IMG_3791

Ever since my first visit to a piece of the Walnut Creek Hike and Bike Trail, I had wanted to discover and explore the beginning portion of the trail in East Austin. It kicks off at Govalle Park, just off of Airport Blvd. This section of the trail is similar in that it is a paved two lane path with a center dividing line. It is popular with the bikers in Austin, and runs along the creek with a view of a set of railroad tracks and airplanes overhead flying into the Austin airport. It was a cool, dark, overcast day and my walk was very enjoyable.
