It's time for Rainbow Summer School with Mrs. Matlock! This week our color is blue. We are zipping right through summer session. There is alot going on around here right now, but I just couldn't bear to miss it. Haven't missed a single class yet, and only 1 tardy :) I've been browsing our photos files for blue, and I found a lot. Must be a favorite color! I hope you enjoy my little foray into the blue. And don't forget to run to class and read what everyone else is sharing this week!Is there anything prettier than a blue Texas sky? You be the judge...
We were taking photos from the new bridge over the San Gabriel River. At the time, it was not yet open. We got run off by our "boys in blue" Hey, the sign said no cars, not no feet!
Blue Hole Park, Georgetown, Texas. Everyone's favorite swimming (and diving) hole
Sky over Little Bay, Rockport, Texas 
Presidio La Bahia, Goliad, Texas. One of my very favorite places to visit. You can truly feel the history when you walk these grounds. 
Steeple of our favorite country church, New Sweden 
Night skyline over Town Lake - recently renamed Lady Bird Lake. Austin, Texas 
Monument blessing the shrimpers, Rockport, Texas 
These last two shots were a whole lot of fun. A new optometrist in Hutto, Texas commissioned DH to take some shots around town to hang in his new eye care center. This is Hutto Stadium, home of the "Hutto Hippos". I kid you not! 
A neat little storefront in "downtown" Hutto. I just love this!
Hope you enjoyed my "blue" period. Have fun visiting all the links this week!

I love that last picture! I don't know why... but I do. :)
I really and truly enjoy this post of blue photos! They are stunning and gorgeous, Kat!
Gorgeous photos, but I just realized something...neither you or I showed a picture of Texas Bluebonnets the state flower! I've got loads of Bluebonnet photos and you probably do too.
Kat your photographs are stunning. You are really becoming a professional. I love them all. Hope you are doing well. Love ya. Hugs, Marty
The pictures are absolutely wonderful! I am absolutely certain that Texas must have some of the best blue skies (next to Iowa :-) )

Wow, your photos are amazing. Some of them almost look like paintings. You are one fantastic photographer.
I love all skies. Each is such a unique color of blue.
Thanks for stopping by.
love your blue period! some wonderful skies and geez that church is gorgeous!
Thank you posting such beautiful photos...lovely...bkm
As I was scrolling thru this photos i was trying to remember the location of one that was a favorite but then I'd look at another one that I liked all the better and so on. Beautiful photos.
Okay, you've convinced me. The blue Texas sky is pretty great!
=D
I dream of a blue sky
What gorgeous shots, Kat! And that HDR quickened my pulse, as HDR always does!!
Love your pictures! I'm heading your direction in November! My first trip to Salado! Do you have any pics of there or any places that are a must see?
Those are amazing photos! It's silly but I never imagined there to be so much blue in Texas! Of course, I've never been there but friends who have gone there always talk about Texas in such a way that in my mind, it's a very yellow looking place. That swimming hole looks like a very fun place to be too!
Love all your blue pictures - especially the last one! Lovely blue Texas sky!!
Happy Rainbow Blue,
LOLA:)
btw My Rainbow Blue link is here for you!
Love that store front! Nice shots, thanks for sharing.
Such lovely pictures...hard to pick a favorite...maybe the Presidio...Peace and blessings
I love the photos. I seem to have forgot the magnificent blue skies, the crowning glory of Texas. Beautiful, just beautiful!
Oh my, Kat! Such beautiful photos..all gorgeous! Impossible to choose a favorite! I scrolled down and read your essay...loved it! what a great idea! the pets of the world deserve some love, too! I hope you are having a great week!...hugs...Debbie
These are all gorgeous. For some reason I couldn't take my eyes off the Presidio La Bahia. That's the one that says Texas most to me.
My favorite is the monument for the shrimpers, what a lovely blessing to those hardworking men!
Well, your blue made me feel rosy! I swear, I'm coming out there and going "shooting" with you guys. But first I have to get a new camera!
Hutto Hippos? Too funny.
Have a great weekend. Hugs
Kat, your beautiful blue pictures are wonderful. They make me want to come and visit your state! Love the swimming hole especially. That conjured up all kinds of stories in my head.
Thanks for this wonderful and refreshing link today!
I enjoy my visit very much!
A+
You know I always love your photos but these are among the best! I would love osme blue English sky right now - we've had two days of solid rain, so much for our summer!
