TEXAS WILDFLOWERS...A TOUR OF WILLOW CITY LOOP

I wanted to share the beauty of Texas Wildflowers

with you before the month ends...

I thought it best to just let you scroll

through the photos and allow you to take in the beauty

of this hidden gem known as the Willow City Loop

located in the Hill Country of Texas!

We enjoyed breakfast at Hoffman Haus

and headed over to Willow City.....

The rain was coming so we wasted no time in packing our bags

and heading out for a ride in the country that I had wanted to experience.

It is unbelievable that there is this much beauty scattered about

just growing wild and free.....

Willow City Loop is an awe-inspiring, historic 13-mile scenic drive 

through the picturesque rugged Texas Hill Country landscape. 

The iconic loop is the quintessential display for Texas wildflower exhibition, 

especially known for the blankets of beloved Texas bluebonnet

 and ever popular Indian paintbrush. 

 The fields are colorfully painted with wildflowers combined with rolling hills, craggy escarpments, and a beautiful canyon carved by Coal Creek. The landscape is colorfully highlighted with an assortment of distinctive native live oak, pecan, and mesquite trees. Other varieties of wildflower that can be found are phlox, coreopsis, Mexican poppies, firewheels, white and yellow daisies. There are several private landowners all along the loop. One fenceline, in particular, illustrates the pride of Texas by featuring Cowboy and Cowgirl boots on the wooden fence post for as far as the eye can see. The boots add to the enchantment of the unforgettable experience.

This trip was made possible as a gift from our children!

It was just a marvelous experience!
