Hamilton Pool Preserve is a Travis County Park with a waterfall and pool (thus the name). It’s crowded on the weekends and many people are turned away, but on a weekday, you just might get in. It’s beautiful.

Beautiful blooms are my reward for just taking a moment to pause and look up. A promise of spring.

Don’t get rid of your old, wooden rocking chairs! Gussy ’em up like a piano!
