Ah, the serendipity of bluebonnets

The Trail of Texas Bluebonnets which I believe in our neck of the woods would be around late March to early April. Could this be the beginning of a discussion at the March GTG for the April GTG.

The article in Texas Highways shows routes near Amarillo (Llano Estacado), Beaumont (Upper Coast), Brackettville (Nueces River Valley) and Lampasas (Heart of the Hill Country). Two of these areas might be within striking distance of us:

Nueces River Valley and Garner State Park
* Route ~180 miles / ~4 hours = Concan -> Garner State Park via -> #83 to Leakey -> #337 to Camp Wood -> 334 to Brackettville & Fort Clark Springs -> #674 to Rocksprings -> to #55 to Camp Wood
* Area Information: Camp Wood, Brackettville, , Fort Clark Springs (830-563-2494) and Rocksprings (830-683-3181)

Heart of the Hill Country and Inks Lake State Park
* Route ~125 miles / ~2 1/2 hours = Burnet -> #29 to LLano (Coopers BBQ?) -> #16 to San Saba -> #580 to Bend -> #580 to Lampasas -> #281 to Burnet.
* Area Information: Burnet (512-756-4297), Llano (325-247-5354), San Saba (325-372-5144) and Lampasas (512-556-5172).
