I spent all day Thursday in jury duty, did 13 Sudoko puzzles, made 1 new friend, was sent to a judge's courtroom at 2:30,the case settled and I was released at 3:00. Ugh! Except for the new friend, it seemed a bit of a wasted day...albeit willing to do my part of civic duty! As I was winding my way back to the freeway from the courthouse, which can be quite a challenge for me in downtown San Antonio since all the roads seems to wind and turn as the San Antonio river does (I think there is a story there...must ask my cousin, Norma), I wanted to share this stunning bouganvilla that caught my eye in the parking lot of an office. 
It looked like it was growing out of the driveway. I definitely think it tops my list of bouganvilla's.
It looked like it was growing out of the driveway. I definitely think it tops my list of bouganvilla's. A special I had on my April post from my dear friend, Carol Garner, in Angleton, Tx. "Beverly, gardening is near and dear to me, also. I wish I could do nothing but that all year long. I laughed when I read the part about buying sickly plants. etc. I love that challenge, too. First the 8 inches of rain and horrible wind last week here and now this weekend 30 mph winds again! It's like Mother Nature is wielding a baseball bat on my poor old vegetable garden! Paul and I repair, pet, do CPR, and pray over our garden lately and it DOES seem to help! LOL! I brushed back some soil to see what the potatoes had under there and I saw a beautiful red potato almost baseball size. They are almost ready. I think harvesting potatoes is about my favorite as it feels alot like a grown-up Easter egg hunt! " Just too cute to not share!
She's a sweetie and I love 'em all down in Angleton. See you in 6 weeks!
