Before the cold front blows into Texas we headed out to Fredericksburg to visit the town and to have lunch at a German restaurant with a couple Larry and Gail met during their travels.
A quaint town with many old limestone buildings and the scattered reminders of a German heritage.
Originally a private residence and general store, built in 1833. Converted to a hospital in 1938. It's now a retail kitchen supplies store.
Many wine tasting shops and upper end furniture and accessories shops line the streets.
We had lunch and a long visit with Mike and Linda. We parted, leaving Fredericksburg behind and Luckenbach in our sites. All I knew of Luckenbach wss related to Willie Nelson's song.
Luckenbach, with a population of 3, is a community in an unincorporated area 13 miles from Fredericksburg.
And what a fun place! Just plain fun walking around the grounds. This is country music Texas style. Maybe 50 people were there milling around. I would love to be there with a capacity crowd. What a hoot. I think.
A sweet yard cat.
We sat outside and enjoyed the music while quenching our thirst on soda. This is a great picture of Larry.
This ones just for Bill.
Boy can we kill a day goofing around. Ain't retirement grand. Come back again.
