not fire, but fiery...and a selfie


The indian paintbrush in the fields is incredible this year. There are several different varieties ranging from pink to orange to red. Guess they liked the long cold winter.

Though it is mostly overcast today (and windy), it is still very bright. Hence the scrunched up face.

  4. Ooooh, nice selfie. The Indian Paintbrush is spectacular. Somewhere around this house we have a wonderful children's book that tells the legend of that flower; I think I'll go look for that.

  8. Wow, look at that. What an incredible display. Between those and bluebonnets, Texas does get the most amazing wildflowers.

  10. I don't know if it would grow here, but I love wild flowers in a field. I have a huge bag of Cosmos seed that I gathered last fall. I plan to broadcast it all over the empty field where our billboard is.
