Faith, Folklore, and Friends

Last week, we were at Monticello, the home Thomas Jefferson designed and built near Charlottesville, Virginia.  No photos are allowed inside the house, sorry.  You will have to go to see it for yourselves.  The following photos are the outside of the mansion, the cemetery, and some of the gardens, my favorite part.

One of the first things you notice about Texas is the wildflowers that are everywhere; you can see them all over the country sides and even in the big cities.  In early April, bluebonnets really put on a show. The pinkish/coral flowers are Indian Paint Brush.  They are so beautiful mixed in with the bluebonnets. The wildflowers are worth the trip.  God bless Texas.

These images are from the Riverwalk in downtown San Antonio.  Be sure to wear your walking shoes!
