Letter home - living history - Fort Stockton 150th anniversary
Photo I took today at historic Fort Stockton during the living history celebration. Celebrating 150th anniversary
Lots of rain lately, making for beautiful desert sage blooms in my front yard. These bushes are usually pretty boring, covered in light green leaves, and darn near impossible to kill, but add some rain storms and suddenly you have an overnight crop of tiny purple flowers.
