Texas tulips was this amazing Pick your own Tulip place in North Texas. The drive to Pilot Point was filled with green fields and ponds! There is no entry fee but the cost of a tulip is $2.50. There are picnic tables for lunches and a small hay maze! Great idea for a day trip with the kids!!!

Texas-tulips is the first place that has tulips blooming in season. It's about a few miles north of The Colony and the views were breathtaking! The tulips are available at the rate of $2.50 a tulip and they are pick your own! They had close to 12 varieties of different colours. Great way for a day trip!
#instone
While driving to South Padre Island to #optoutside and welcome the new year, I found this little gem in a tiny detour. Mr Newman, the owner of Newman Castle, built the castle himself with the help of one other person. It took him ten years to move in (he actually lives there) and now he opens the doors of his home to people. I arrived right at the perfect time when he was starting the tour. He dubbed me Dame Maribeth with his sword (I don't think he ever heard of a Maribel before). The place is amazing and he even gave us water, sandwiches, donuts, and cookies. Before leaving, Mr Newman opened a tiny treasure chest and gave me a tiny "gold nugget" in payment for helping him guard his castle from enemy invasion. The entire time, I carried a wooden sword he gave me at the beginning of the tour. It was a nice a little pleasant surprise.
