Texas Blue Bonnets and Rustling Green Wheat Waves

Take a lovely drive from Buffalo Gap, the first seat of Taylor County,
down Hwy 89 and you'll find....
Buffalo Gap Cemetery.....
Tom Perini's family built the lovely prayer chapel that sits amid masses of our
beloved Texas Blue Bonnets
An angel watches serenely as the fragrance of the blue ocean caress your senses and bring you
and exquisite peace..... and the assurance that this life is NOT the end.
This year... the green waves rustle softly in our late April breezes...
They offer hope of a great harvest of the soon to be golden wheat fields along Lemons Gap Road.
Come see us this Spring and get ready...
there's a feast for your senses in our little Jim Ned Valley!

Hawks and wildflowers

Blue bonnet time again!!! After our winter rains (so abundant this year) we have these
beauties everywhere! Can't wait for the ones across from the BarBQue barn to bloom!
Take a bicycle trip down Lemons Gap Road... you'll have to stop to smell the flowers...
GRAPE JELLY FLOWERS that is!
These are just between Buffalo Gap and Lemons Gap.

.... and if you drive to the West... What a treat we will have in store all season long!
This lovely lady is allowing us a clear view of her nursery!
perhaps she doesn't appreciate being spied upon:)
but it will be fun to watching this magnificent Redtail Hawk bring up her babies...
I'm betting on a pair.
How bout you?
Nothing like the beautiful raptors in flight!

I'm thankful for a country life where this is what we are allowed to see EVERY DAY!
God's country... that's with what I'm thinking we've been blessed!
