Texas Lost a Real Lady


Texas lost a real lady this week! Lady Bird Johnson that is.... There will be eulogies to spare published across the Internet, most of them written much better than I could. But every time I drive down a Texas Highway or Interstate and see the wild flowers growing along the right of way in the Spring -- or NOT see the ugly automobile junk yards that used to pollute the view -- or NOT see the thousands of commercial billboards that used to litter the roadsides... I think of Lady Bird and her legacy. I suggest that no matter what state you live in ---- you do the same!
I won't belabor my opinion of her husband's legacy.... I'll just slow down and admire hers!

Thank you Ma'am.........
