Another sign of Spring


Who could resist taking a picture of the beautiful clusters of puprle flowers that grace the branches of a Texas Mountain Laurel? There is nothing that says SPRING quite as boldly. There's no flower on earth that has a fruity fragrance like these blossoms; kind of reminds me of grape koolaid. There are lots of blossoming trees around Austin right now, but none can compete with a Mountain Laurel for beauty and vigor.

Maybe its spring there. It was freezing today in Houston. I understand that Dallas had a huge snowstorm. We must wait patiently a few more days till spring.
