As they rest of the family was closing up the old house from Antique Alley, I heard sirens in the distance. It seems the gas compressors at the pump station caught fire. The Maypearl Volunteer Fire Department responded an let it burn out. They closed 916 to traffic, but luckily there was no explosion.
The building burned pretty good, but it can all be repaired.
We finished the JV season in Maypearl Saturday. The Palmer Bulldogs came to play ball with us. Here is Andys first t bat. He got a single.
Nick the Quick pitched the game.
Andy got a double his second at bat.
Here he is playing third base. No more JV games for us. 
Lynne and I went to the old house Thursday night to mow and do a little clean up. The Old Blush rose was blooming nicely.
There was one Iris blooming and all the rest were on the verge of coming out.
And then... Saturday morning it started snowing before 9 o'clock in the morning and snowed all day long. It melted as soon as it hit the warm ground, but stayed for awhile on the grass, trees, and roofs.
It was really pretty. Down between Hillsboro and Waco they had over four inches of the white stuff. I don't think we had that much.
These are pictures of things I found growing in my front yard. I don't know what the blue flowers are but there are clumps of them all over the yard.
I believe this purple one is Vetch.
And this is a Wine Cup.
Another that I don't know the name of. They are very small though. There were some smaller pink and red ones that I couldn't get a picture of.
And of course these are the Blue Bonnets. The hillside is covered with them and the photos don't do them justice.
And finally, here is a Wiener dog in her natural habitat; a field of flowers.
