Hi Sholt, welcome to the Stew from north Texas. Please post an intro of yourself in our Welcome to Gardenstew forum so we can get to know each other.

As far as your 'weed'...it is hard to tell without getting a close look at the leaves and individual flowers.
There are many flowers that have a similar look but the leaves will usually hold a better clue to the ID of a plant.

Hi Sholt I agree that a closer shot of the seed head etc... will help immensely.

It looks like Western Salsify (have a look at the images at the bottom of this page)

This is just a guess however.

Hope you can get more photos for us.
