Blue Bell's Original Creamery in Brenham, TX

 If you take a drive down Highway 290 West of Houston you soon reach the gentle rolling hills around Brenham, about 70 miles away. If you slow down and try to count the cows you can see from your window, you might be there for a spell.  Blue Bell Creameries has been producing great dairy products since the doors opened in 1907. In those days, the plant produced only butter. But just a few years later they added a couple of gallons of homemade ice cream to the delivery wagon every day, and the Blue Bell legend was born. Now just ask any Texan, "wanna get some ice cream?", and whether they say it or not, they're immediately thinking about Blue Bell Ice Cream, the unofficial ice cream of the Texas Republic. And what's more, if you're thinking about free ice cream, then you should be thinking about Blue Bell Creameries in Brenham. Yes, you can tour the creameries facility in Brenham, one of several creameries the expanding company operates across the South. But be warned, almost regardless the time of year, the tours are in demand and limited to the first 800 visitors through the doors each week day. And don't expect to eat your fill of ice cream just because you were lucky enough to make the tour group. You'll certainly get a good taste. But it will, of course, leave you wanting for more.   Directions to Blue Bell From Houston, take Highway 290 West approximately 72 miles. When you pass the old drive-in theatre turn right on Loop 577, go past the second stoplight and its on the right. 800-327-8135   www.bluebell.com
