Title: Bluebonnets Post by: DIGGER on March 24, 2014, 04:51:05 AM Rode out in the Hempstead, Tx area this weekend and still have not seen any Bluebonnets. Saw a few Indian Paint Brushes though. Anyone else seeing any Bluebonnets?
Title: Re: Bluebonnets Post by: Doc809 on March 24, 2014, 05:16:54 AM Going to Bandera this weekend for the rally. Planning to ride the Three Sisters on Saturday and then take the scenic route home Sunday through the hill country. Will let you know about the wildflowers down there. Oh, by the way, anybody wanting to go with me speak up. Leaving at noon Friday and be home when I get through riding on Sunday.
