While not one to participate in Texan braggadocio, I can’t resist passing this on. Texans are known for lots of things, some of which are not necessarily flattering, but our plot of the Earth is pretty great.
25 Reasons You Should Never Visit Texas
My Gardener Says…
Yeah, it's work, but it's less work than grass and far more interesting.

Such beauty in Texas.

Indeed! Thought to be fair, every place has its beauty. But you know how Texans are. 🙂

Me too! Though not all. I’ve never been to Palo Duro Canyon and I need to. Really. Also, I’ve not seen Caddo Lake. But I love, love the Big Bend area–have visited/hiked many times and lots of the other places are in or near to Central Texas. Sigh. So many lovely places.

Palo Duro Canyon is nice. We went there some years back to see the “Texas” outdoor musical. If you’re ever in that area you should consider seeing it.

I’ve heard that’s a great show to see. I need to go!

Tina, I think you mistakenly deleted what I am sure was the original end of your sentence… “our plot of the Earth is pretty great”. You left out “except in July, August, and parts of September.”.
We had fun trying to guess each location before scrolling down to reveal the source of each photo. And it does function as a great “must visit” list! Thanks for sharing!

Ha ha! Fair point, I guess. It is rather toasty ’round these parts at that time of year. But you can’t deny that the Texas sky is stunning and that those photographs are amazing.
I had to look up where Benbrook Lake is–10 miles (west, I think it is) of Ft. Worth.
Glad you enjoyed–I thought it was fun!

Beautiful photos. I had no idea there was such wonderful and varied scenery in Texas.

Those photos were just magnificent. Texas is a really big place–lots of varied topography and climate. There were no photos of the Rio Grande Valley, which to me is one of the least attractive parts of the state, though there are beauties there too. Also, no shots of the upper plains area, where the Panhandle is, also a rather monotonous area, but again, there are some lovely spots. And the Texas sky is something to behold.

I had a look and loved it! I enjoyed guessing (or recognizing) each spot too. It would be fun to make a personalized list of favorites.

It’s a cute look, I think. Texans are just so full of themselves… but sometimes, they’re spot on! 🙂
