A personal reflection on Texas bluebonnets across the Hill Country, family road trips to Brenham, and the emotional memory of a mother’s last days. The author recalls singing old songs, Burma-Shave signs, and the scent of the Bluebonnet season while sharing how his mother’s passing inspired decades of weekly Baytown Sun columns.
