Bluebonnets and Indian Paintbrush or other signs of Spring

Lots of local wildflowers now blooming here in Texas.  Location on FM362 between FM1488 and 105…

Today’s run was a 160 mile loop with a friend on a Stelvio and his family in the Boxster with a stop at the local tavern…and something I have never seen…a 4 month old Joey (kangaroo) hopping around near the bikes.  
 

No V11 content due to awaiting a few parts to be installed tonight in my complete tank off maintenance process.   Tomorrow off to collect a few stops on the Grand Tour of Texas…

A kangaroo in Texas? Was this before or after the tavern stop?

As hard as this is to believe it was actually at the Tavern stop!!  Disclaimer…I don’t drink while riding but at first glance I thought someone had spiked my Arnold Palmer!

Takes more than a BudLite to see kangaroos in Texas. That's mescaline territory.

Sounds like a good plan! take your rain gear with you, just in case....

I found one stop the Grand Tour should absolutely put on its list, I bet there are so many; but this one is historical;

I took several photos of the monument to make a panorama using my Tilt and Shift lens, but I managed to forget one set of flags, the most important ones! I need to go back.

Thanks P6x…I’ll have to get down there shortly!  Had a nice 250 Miler today getting two stops on the tour, Classic Rock Cafe and Camp Hearne plus a nice loop.  Tomorrow I may do Port Bolivar and Galveston or Lufkin…haven’t decided yet. got lucky….no rain just a pleasant day out with some clouds and sunshine alternating…quite a few riders.

Will load some pics later this evening…

You were so close to it! it is on the 105 to Brenham from Navasota.

Great ride! 250 miles... I have not done anything yet. I have something penciled for tomorrow, probably the Classic Rock Café too.

[PJPR01]

Ah ah ah…so close!  Will get there!

If you’re going to go to Classic Rock tomorrow, shoot me a note if you’re up for a coffee and some company unless you have a tight schedule.

I have a couple of errands to run this morning, but I should be on my way to get there around lunch if nothing changes.

I am going to try to figure out how to carry my tripod o my bike or myself, because I want to do the Texas Flags Monument justice. I am a sucker for history, and I solemn up when on "special" places.

[PJPR01]

Excellent…will be up that way at the same time…
