Vacation



My wife and I took a few days off and journeyed to one of our favorite places: The Hill country of Texas. We stayed in a cottage outside of Gruene that was once a stagecoach stop:


We went shopping in Gruene which had some very nice decorations up for the season. We ate at the Gristmill, a favorite place in the area.




Murphy, our dog, approved of the antique bathroom furniture we found in our cottage.



We found a wonderful little holiday light display in a village called Wimberly. We couldn't resist a few pictures:


The Hill Country is a wonderful quiet place to spend a few days. We also shopped at the Christmas art bazaars in Austin and paid a trip to Bourne. Although the weather was a bit cold it only added to our holiday experience.
