No wonder just about every bluebonnet patch you see has a starburst pattern of foot paths leading to its center. There's actually someone
encouraging their destruction by asking people to plop their progeny in the middle of the flowers for a photo-op.
Maybe I'm just being selfish and cold-hearted, but isn't there a way we
all can enjoy the wildflowers that doesn't destroy them? The flowers we saw yesterday were all pristine, but that's just because we stuck to the road less traveled. I can imagine what they look like along I-35, after 10,000 Gunner and Katlins have trounced through them.
Update: Well here ya go. Now I know why so many Houstonians are looking for some fresh bluebonnets to decimate. It ran in
The Houston Chronicle right
here.Just imagine the ass-sized imprint this kid made in an otherwise perfect patch of bluebonnets.
Makes ya want to slap them from the side of the road, doesn't it?
