by Jayson MayThe best known and most beloved of the wildflowers in State of Texas is, of course, the official state flower, the Texas Bluebonnet (Lupinus texensis).

Just a quick note from Sarito on a busy day here in Junction... there's a really nice op-ed piece in today's New York Times - "Lady Bird's Lost Legacy" by Lawrence Wright. Beautifully written, and has lots of information about her contribution that I, for one, hadn't known much about. Also discusses what has happened since the passage of the Highway Beautification Act, and how the next highways

Lessons come round to be learned again and again, each time on a deeper level. Synchronicities happen, and we are reminded of the rhythms and interdependencies of nature that connect us all.I was thinking of that specially

One of the great things about being a "blogmistress" is that I get copied into all kinds of interesting bits and pieces of news that fly around the Native American Seed community. This one came from Emily, who got it from the Native Prairie Association of Texas, shortly after they had organized a field trip to Clymer Meadow Preserve (managed by the Texas Nature Conservancy) near Celeste, Tx.

Over the past weekend, our friend and colleague Dan Cochran (see the previous post) was enjoying a visit with his family in San Antonio when they got the news that his nephew, Anthony Bradshaw, was among six young soldiers, and an embedded Russian journalist working for Newsweek, killed on Sunday by a roadside bomb in Baqouba, Iraq. Anthony was a Specialist in the 3rd Brigade 2nd Infantry

News from River Run Ranchcontributed by Dan the New Era Man as a follow-up to his "Part One" - see the link to it down in the right panel on this page. He finished this one a couple weeks back ... but we've been so durn busy we're just now getting around to posting it. And with it, launching the new "blog" addition to our website. Since Dan wrote this piece, by the way, there's been more rain! -
