Comments (10)Thanks everyone. I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures. The muffins were great. Brought them in to work with me to share so I wouldn't be tempted to eat the whole batch! Felix! Scones!!! That's what I should have made. sounds like a project for tonight. I have some blueberries to use up. Cindee, I don't know what passie this is. I got it a couple of years ago at HD but of course it was not marked. I'm thinking it is possibly alata caerulea. It has a very nice fragrance. Vigorous growth but manageable. I'm going to try to get some cuttings rooted. I haven't had the best luck with rooting things but I don't think I wait long enough before I give up. Going to try a little patience this time :) (Now I will have Guns and Roses playing in my head all day - lol! All we need is just a little patience ...... Patience... Ooh, oh, yeah) ~Betsy...See MoreRainy spring photos

Comments (49)@ Roselee, Yes, I can see the Milky Way and I have some favorite lightning bug sightings that were down right jaw dropping and other worldly.. I am remembering one because the person I saw it with , died this week. We were down on the banks of the Pedernales. we spent a sunset swimming under Ol'Glory, a immense cypress that survived the big floods of the 30's and 50"s. It must be in a sweet spot. The many roots of dead Cypress structures created glorious Rorschach structures in the glassy still waters. we cooked our meals and watched the stars come out and there were millions of them in the moonless night. then the millions of lightning bugs came out all over the undergrowth of the opposite bank down to the river. All were reflected in the glassy waters , stars, bugs, all together, just a vague dividing line between the changing dimensions. It went on for hours. WE slowly waded in till thigh deep in the stars and dove into the reflected lightning bugs and then floated on our backs looking up into the convergence of the sparkling trees and stars like fat bloated water bugs, arms outstretch still and quiet. . This supplanted the last amazing sighting of watching one of those amazing multi-level towering Texas storms sprouting a constant hair of lightning from its upper levels , snaking in the convolutions of green cloud, lighting up like glow worms and snakes in the clouds depths. Out of the lower levels, tree lightning snaked outwards for miles above our head,. and again millions of lightning bugs answering their brethren of the skies. Also an amazing sighting. They definitely rank among the memories that I treasure that have made me forget to close my gaping mouth. Amazing things can be encompassed by "Golly miss Molly" Thank you guys for making me delve into the memory banks....See MoreRainy Blue
