| Mexican feathergrass |
Warmish temperatures and fairly clear skies created the perfect day for a field trip to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin. Plus, ADMISSION IS FREE UNTIL JANUARY 31! So off we went, James, me, my mother Marcelle Smith and Blanco neighbor Jeri B. I especially wanted to look at native grasses, which I want to plant more of in our Wildscape, and also water features.

The view from your window is in great contrast to my view! It was lovely going into the wild, right from my comfy sofa! You're welcome to take a peek through my window too.
