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?

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.
How much fun can I have before I have to go to hell?

There are quite a few between Brenham and Ledbetter... Past Ledbetter there are fields of Indian Paintbrush.... almost like they took over the area..

Went on a poker run this past Sat from Sweet Home, Shiner, Gonzales, Cistern and back through Flatonia, Moulton areas and the Bluebonnets were few and far between in those areas.
Remember, if you are on a bike and wreck with a car no matter how "in the right" you are you are going to lose. RIDE LIKE EVERBODY IS OUT TO GET YOU!!

Missed the Bluebonnet and Bacon run to Snook this year.  But I seldom saw bluebonnets on those runs, anyway.  Just lots of bacon.

Up in the Brenham and college station area for work today. Saw a few patches coming into Washington County. More sporadic patches heading out the Independence Trail area.

Coming up Highway six out of college station back towards Houston there wasn't much until the Navasota area and then it picked up pretty good, but as others  noted alot of the Indian paintbrush this year.

Went for a short ride last Sunday and there were some good sized patches on 362 near 105 and in Navasota's area.
On your tombstone there is a dash between the day you were born and the day you die. Make that dash count.

Drove the Willow City loop about a week ago.  Not good at all, But the road between Fredericksburg and Llano was pretty good.

There is hardly any bonnets on the loop. I saw more bonnets on the way home from Johnson City to San Antonio on US281.

All along the new 130 loop east of Austin they were extraordinary.
