It must be spring!

Ladybird Johnson was responsible for the blooming population of bluebonnets in the state of Texas.  It was one of her passions so as first lady to the president in the 60’s, she planted thousands of acres of wildflowers along Texas highways.  They are still a source of tourism, especially in the hill country.  But locals took up the practice of planting them and every spring you can see thousands of folks snapping photos of their kids amongst the flowers to be able to preserve their beauty forever.  Hey, I’m just a big kid, too!
