sheep_herder ★ Posted March 8, 2023 Share #9 Posted March 8, 2023 Go back in August, and you'll see why the locals drink so much beer. We really enjoyed going to the Folk Life Festival each summer when we last lived in Texas. My wife has not been back in the spring since covid arrived. Hope you have a Grand time. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tizeye Posted March 9, 2023 Share #12 Posted March 9, 2023 Remember the Alamo. Also, for food…for an insulting experience devoid of customer service and ettiquite, eat at Dirty Harry,s.

Thanks for the tip. I’m often devoid of etiquette, so I’ll fit right in. We should get to the Alamo area early Sunday afternoon and have the rest of the day there before I fly back Monday morning.

sheep_herder ★ Posted March 9, 2023 Share #23 Posted March 9, 2023 I assume you will be going to the Historic Market Square as well as the River Walk. I use to have research areas South and West of San Antonio. Usually was just driving through, unless my wife was with me. Also as a young man I spent part of some summers at Garner State Park. It is located West of town and North of Uvalde. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffJim Posted March 10, 2023 Author Share #36 Posted March 10, 2023 The drive from I-10 to Fredericksburg was strikingly dark. Overcast night and at times couldn’t see a single light til we got near Fredericksburg. Rolling hills - would have been nice to see, but we’re heading back that way Sunday. West of San Antonio and DFW is the real entrance to the American West. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
