Of course, we also didn't have a president's wife going about spreading seeds everywhere. But man, that Ladybird was on to something...katinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15658859113915782535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6915750954797799322.post-30810066255193433302010-04-03T14:03:05.181-05:002010-04-03T14:03:05.181-05:00Bob - THANK YOU!

I cannot tell you how many times I've been tempted to stop and ask flower trompers how they expect anybody after them to enjoy what little they've left.

I've always wished the Don't Mess With Texas folks would take on a Don't Stomp on the Bluebonnets secondary campaign!TexasDebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11214888876514137890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6915750954797799322.post-51052565799631257832010-04-03T06:23:11.011-05:002010-04-03T06:23:11.011-05:00Thanks for advising people to stay off the blue bo...Thanks for advising people to stay off the blue bonnets. One of the prettiest hills of blue was completely wiped out in one year by admirers walking, sitting, laying on blankets on them. I guess you can't change stupid.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
