Lady Bird

... beautification is like picking up a tangled skein of wool... All the threads are interwoven - recreation and pollution and mental health, and the crime rate, and rapid transit, and highway beautification, and the war on poverty, and parks... It is hard to hitch the conversation into one straight line, because everything leads to something else.[1]

RIP, Lady Bird. Your Bluebonnets were beautiful this year, weren't they?
