I have seen more wisteria today than in my whole life. It has been remarkably beautiful. In Jackson, I saw it in almost every yard but today, driving through Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas, it was everywhere. Huge bushes and tiny shrubs but all beautiful. Our trip took us from one corner of Texas catty corner down to the lake, through farm land and driving on divided but no inter-state highways, so we got to see where people live. These bushes must have been planted many years ago because they are big. And they are beautiful. We must have arrived at just the perfect time for wisteria.
The dogwoods are out too. Jackson has hundreds of trees in bloom and the whole trip today put on a wonderful show of dogwoods in the forests. The trees have always been with me during my life. Vancouver is lovely in the spring when the dogwoods are in bloom and of course, the Washington area is full of dogwood trees. But today, the dogwood trees followed us the whole way here. They were beautiful.
Our drive today was easy. We only have two hours to go tomorrow. Tonight, Mexican food for dinner. We are in Texas!!
