Texas Wheat Fields

8 Replies

Take a turn off the main road and enter into a world where you literally feel like you’re the only person there. It was just corn on one side, wheat on the other and me inbetween. The smell of rain was in the air. A storm was rolling in and you could just see the top of the wheat waving in the wind.
Oh, the beginning of the summer in Texas.

Exploring Nature at the Hyatt Lost Pines

2 Replies
Recently, I told you about my visit to the Hyatt Regency Resort and Spa. It’s absolutely amazing but what really got me was how nature really embraces you. In honor of Wordless Wednesday, I thought I would share some of the sights that I saw outside on my trip.
There are hiking trails throughout the entire resort, so you could probably walk all day if you wanted to. The next few pictures are from the walking trails along the river which also leads to the walking trails at McKinney Roughs Nature Park.
Need a break? Directly outside the rooms, you will find two gardens filled with wildflowers and benches to sit, relax and soak it all in.
The landscaping is absolutely amazing. Just imagine being able to literally step outside of your room and be exposed to all this.
 
And at the end of the day, is this not the most perfect spot in the entire place? How were these chairs even empty?!

WW: 50 Miles In April

7 Replies

Can we believe that April has come and gone?! I have a hard time believing it myself. At the beginning of April, I gave myself a goal of running / walking 50 miles by the end of the month. Thanks to a trust iPhone app, I was able to keep track. That and the gorgeous weather that we had that allowed me to be outside trying to soak it all in.

If you are a follower of mine on Instagram and Facebook, I’m sure you’ve seen a few of these (if you are not – you should definitely start) and you’ll see a few new ones as well. It shouldn’t be a surprise that I have a habit of grabbing shots anywhere I can. Here are a few of the ‘views” that I came across on my 50 mine journey during the month of April.

Photos were taken at the River Legacy Park, Arlington, TX, Enchanted Rock, Fredericksburg, TX and the Hyatt Lost Pines Resort in Bastrop, TX.
