Today Larry, a fellow photography and biking friend, and Sally and I went to shoot wildflowers at the University of Texas Wildflower Center in South Austin.

Eats at the famous Shady Grove near Zilker Park after.  Pulled Pork Tamale Cakes and Meatloaf smothered with chili, fries, and jalapeno-lime coleslaw.

A great day.  Larry’s wife Marilyn works for Texas A&M Agricultural Research Center and this day had to stay at home to research and write as she is studying some advanced subjects on the post-grad level at University of Texas. No matter we brought some homemade limoncelo cake over for desert Smile
