Gruene Hall is the oldest dance hall in Texas built in  1878.

Singers Willie Nelson, George Strait, Garth Brooks, Lyle Lovett and Hal Ketchum were among the more famous singers that played here.

We also visited Magnolia Pearl and Luckenbach, Tx. yesterday.

cattle and seashells

Texas for me is longhorn cattle.

What do you think about when someone says Texas?

I started this shawl right before we left South Dakota.

It was my road project along with a good book. I bought the yarn when we were down here last year because it reminded me of seashells.

 But when I work on it here in hill country I think about longhorn cattle.

Texas

 Three blizzards later we are here in Texas...and what a relief to miss the last one.

It's all about the kolaches for us. 

Well, Mr. b enjoys the chicken fried steak too.

It is rocky and rustic here in Hill Country.

Our campground is close to the Quadalupe River and we love biking beside it.

Sitting outdoors to knit or read a book in January! Life is good.
