Honorary Texan

It turns out that when you are in Texas and the Blue Bonnets are in bloom it is customary to have your photograph taken in the middle of a field of them. Sometimes the road crew has to kill the Blue Bonnets with herbicides because people pull over on the side of the road where they shouldn't just so they can have someone snap a pic. When I was in Austin two weeks ago my friend, Bob (the only person who is allowed to take photos of me because he always makes me look pretty good) had me pose in the middle of the patch on the south side of his house. I put on my blue sweater so I would match the Blue Bonnets. Blue Bonnets look like California Lupin if the Lupin was a grass instead of a bush.
