Definitely pea family. I'll go so far as to say genus iLathyrus/i,
but I'm sure my betters will correct me.

Need more pictures to take a decent guess at it, but check out
both "sweet pea" and "hyacinth bean" in the images files at
google. Quite a variation in flower color for both species.

Thanks everybody ! It's a Sweet Pea all right ! Knowing the name has
helped me to positively ID this lovely, but invasive, plant through
some plant data bases ! Thanks !
