Blue Monday: Bluebonnets!

Blue Monday is hosted weekly by Smiling Sally.
To see more offerings, or to participate yourself, please head on over to her blog.

It's that time of year again in Texas -- springtime means the bluebonnets are blooming once again.  And here in the Hill Country, you see them along just about every road.  It's been almost thirty years since we were in Texas at this time of year, so it's really exciting to see the lovely blue blossoms again.  We live just a short drive from the Bluebonnet Trail, and I've been snapping shots every time we're out and about -- these are just a few (click on images to enlarge):
