Fredericksburg is only an hour or so away from Austin.
Go by way of bus with a dozen other realtors and that hour passes fast...
...especially if most of them are women!
We slipped into this little restaurant on the main street for a coffee to-go.
Ammunition against the freezing temperature and brisk wind outside.
All of the shops are inside historic buildings and show off the great architectural details.
I should have bought this for my son and daughter-in-law.
I hope they're happy with just a photo of it.
Look who's keeping an eye on the store in Dogologie!
Stylishly bundled up against the cold.
Precious!
Embroidered boots! How do they do that?
If I hadn't just bought a pair of boots...
(and if I had an extra few hundred bucks lying around...)
Hmmmm....makes you think.
When in a German town, you have to drink a German beer...
My view as I ate my Reuben sandwich (and drank my German beer.)
More of our group wandered in later...
This unique stair railing graced the inside of one of the shops...
Such a cute idea!
On the way home, we stopped at Messina Hof winery for a tasting...
It was the perfect way to spend a winter day in Texas...
...although, honestly, Fredericksburg is great in any season!
