Texas Time (and a book deal)
Ken and I have been traveling in Texas for the past week and will be exploring much of this huge state over the next month-plus. We have been blown away by the beauty of Texas, especially the Hill Country, which is a new area for us. I’m thinking I may just have to set a future book in this place and this season when the bluebonnets and Indian paintbrush and baby blue eyes are gorgeously in bloom and the weather is almost perfect! My book will have to end before July though because I’ve been in Texas im July and it’s not quite so lovely then…at least not for this gal who is not a fan of hot summer days.
This meadow of wildflowers (mostly bluebonnets and Indian paintbrush) was in McKinney Falls State Park. We walked here at sunrise yesterday morning and it was just breath-taking.
We especially enjoy camping in state parks, and Texas parks have not disappointed! Here are just a few of the scenes that have taken our breaths away!
Inks Lake State Park
We saw the most incredible sunset over the bluebonnets at Inks Lake State Park.

This was the sunset view just behind our campsite at Inks Lake State Park.
Perdanales Falls State Park.
I confess I didn’t actually see this pretty sunrise. I was happily sleeping in inside the camper while Ken captured the sunrise for me. No regrets! 
Another gorgeous sunrise at McKinney Falls State Park near Austin. Just look at God’s glory on display!
Cypress trees at the Upper Falls at McKinney Falls State Park.
And because I just can’t get enough of them, more bluebonnets at McKinney Falls State Park, these stairstep beauties captured by my talented husband, Ken Raney.Have you ever explored the Texas Hill Country? I can’t recommend spring here highly enough!
