Wildflowers Galore!

The drive to Austin yesterday and back to Corpus Christi today was breathtakingly beautiful with all the wildflowers in bloom. We were most surprised to find more growing along I-37 than on the side roads we took to Austin on Friday. It seemed like Easter driving back this afternoon, only to be shrouded in fog when we got to Corpus Christi--which is more indicative of the day before Easter.
