Ominous Clouds in the Distance at Sunset

Bracing ourselves for the fickleness of Spring Weather. Ugh.

A Wildflower by the RV Steps.

It's an interesting wildflower...

I'm gonna let it live to see how it looks all grown up.

Mesquite Flowers....

....which, with the kind of wind we get out here, are going to get into EVERYTHING.

Wildflowers Galore

One of the many perks of living out here in the country are these Gorgeous Wildflowers.

Remember when we talked about the Dr. Huey roses?

Well, one week later, and look at them now!

We caught sight of the Celestial Smiley Face :)

It was an alignment of the Crescent Moon, Venus and Saturn.

It looked kind of lopsided, but what the hey.

Easter Weekend 2025

1. Breakfast Pancakes!

Love the Pastel-ness of it all.

2. The Dyess Air Show

okay, those photos are not centered, and that makes my OCD go crazy, but I will let it go for now.

3. Easter Egg Hunting!

Here are The Irises a couple of days later

A Glimpse of Post Rain

Here's a peek at what the road looks like the next day after we have had about 2 1/2 - 2 3/4 inches of rain overnight.

What did I tell you!?

The iris blooms are unfurling!

Slow down and observe a Ladybug

Thought I'd share this really pretty ladybug with anyone reading. 🐞

The Roses are blooming

These may not be the American Pride roses we started off with - in fact, they are what has grown from the original rootstock after The %^&$ Grasshoppers did away with 99.9% of the actual desired graft - but they still put out an abundance of sweet smelling flowers when in season.

The rootstock is Dr Huey, is what the hubs tells me.

Still pretty, tho. Waiting on them to be in full bloom. THAT is usually quite spectacular.

Another Glorious Texas Sunset

 

Easter Egg Coloring

Another yearly tradition :)

I try to get us to do something different, if possible.

Sometimes it's successful.  Other times, it can get really messy.

Budding Irises

Oooo. Almost now! Just give it a few days more.

A Phone Call from The Office?

It was obviously a scam / spam call, but it was from SCRANTON , PA!

Yeah, I'm an The Office fan, having watched it all the way through about 3 times now.

And yes, that is indeed a Land Line phone.
