    This is an amazing family experience. Our girls loved getting so close to the animals. Very professional, kind staff made for a great time. Definitely take your family and buy plenty of feed.

    The experience of the falls is based on when you arrive. When we were here the water was very still and hardly flowing. Since, it was this way, we were able to skirt over the rocks and explore various water holes. We tried to hike the Penernales Falls Trail and it was barely marked. When we came in, the rangers were at a meeting so it was quite the experience to try and pay. The two credit systems at the park were not working. We were one of the lucky ones who had cash and placed the fee in an envelope. Others decided to take the chance and get caught for not paying since the credit card machines were not working, You can buy your ticket on line prior to arrival.

    Just outside of Fredricksburg is the Lyndon B Johnson National Historical Park. While the mansion was under renovation the Rangers were helpful in showing us what was on offer. The drive around the historic ranch was great.

    Visiting LBJ house and library
    Walking through the house where LBJ grew up in and seeing the surrounding countryside left me with a greater understanding of his aspiration to help lift others out of poverty.

    We arrived about a half hour before closing and were able to walk around and get a personal tour. Douglas, the park ranger did an exquisite job of giving us a personal tour and left us pondering his life.

    Noting that LBJ’s father lived large and often beyond his means and his mother a lived the southern Baptist creed of “helping those with less”. LBJ acquired both traits.

    I have to say I was impressed well above my expectations. This is such a gem for a small Hill Country town. I think this rivals if not surpasses some of the 'big city' museums and similar venues. The number, variety, and sophistication of the displays were interesting even for adults. While it is 'geared' for kids, as adults we found it fascinating. We spent about 3 1/2 hours here, and if it weren't for a bit of a limited attention span of elementary grandkids, we could have easily spent longer. Indoor and outdoor activities. The outdoor ball machine was great fun and we had to peel them away. The VR flying 'ride' was 2 minutes long and included with the admission. All in all, a great experience! Highly recommended.

    If only this were open, how exciting it'd be to see it rom the inside. There is a pool in the back so walk around to that side to get a nice picture of the home.

    Nice selection of TX wines. Lost Drawl is located at vineyard in Johnson City now. Just up the road. Both this and Lost Drawl are William Chris affiliates.

    Attended special solar eclipse event. They actually called our party in advance and provided suggested route (to avoid traffic due to the eclipse) which was an incredibly thoughtful thing to do- and no doubt time consuming with so many expected patrons.
    And event was flawless with pig roast and obviously their great wine. And literally they walked around and served desserts while we lounged in our chairs sipping wine.
    Super!

    Such a cool place. We were at a neighboring winery and struck up a conversation with another couple. They said that we should consider stopping by Untamed and if we did we should have the South African Pizza. Well not to pass on sound advice we did just that.

    When we arrived we were greeted by Anooshka, and she was great. So friendly and personable, definitely a great representative of the business. We ordered the South African Pizza (which has a banana paste on it) which was great. We had a couple glasses of wine, and set out on our way. This place is a must see.

    We stopped at this vineyard to eat and spend a quiet afternoon with friends. You can bring your own food but we choose to bring some birthday cake and buy the charcuterie board (which was pretty good) before doing the tastings.
    The grounds are beautiful and it was very quiet on the Sunday afternoon when we visited.
    The tastings were reasonably priced, educational and interesting as we learned a lot about various wines and how they are made.

    This antique store is a regular stop for us. It's clean, smells great, has a great selection of cool stuff and their prices beat the heck out of the other stores in the surrounding areas! Don't be fooled by the small storefront, it's very large and deep and features over 30 vendors!

    This is an established mixed-media gallery, with both fine art and lovely jewelry. Shows both 2D and 3D works, often thematically related to the Texas Hill Country. The space is eclectic and interesting. Check it out--you'll see what I mean!

    The owner is also an artist, whose own beautiful work can be seen at the gallery.

    Carries many award-winning regional artists. Highly recommended, well worth a visit! (And go to an opening if you are able, when you can also sample some tasty snacks and drink some good, local wines.)
