Stop and smell the irises
You don't see irises in Texas
More of the flowers
| We arrived in Grand Island Nebraska yesterday afternoon. We spent the remainder of the day relaxing in the hot tub and, after dinner, watching a thunderstorm move towards the park. About 10 pm a tremendous downdraft hit the park and we got whipped with a huge straight wind. For a short minute, we thought we would need to pull in the slides as the trailer rocked. Fortunately the storm quickly passed. The next morning we awoke to a beautiful, clear shiny day and went into Grand Island for a walk. Yes Grand Island is an island, sitting between parts of the Platte River. Our walk took us through old residential areas and along a hike and bike path that was once part of the Union Pacific right of way. For all of the ladies out there, we also passed the boyhood home of Nicholas Sparks. Suanne said that most of you would recognize the author. If not, ask her. LOL. Until later. |
