9-5-09 Gruene, TX

Gruene Texas, "Gently resisting change since 1872." This is the second time we've ventured to Gruene. It's not far from us at all and it's a neat area with resturants, shops, etc. We ate again at the Gristmill, this time we sat outside and could barely see the river, lots of trees! We were visited by a little hummingbird who was feasting on flowers near our table, so cool.
Kids cheesin it up for me.

Hummingbird dining nearby!

The worlds spiciest bloody mary ever.

Madi and her ribs, yum!

Angie use to do this too, I don't know why they like to eat lemons!? Looks painful.

The view from our table, the Guadalupe River is down there, somewhere.

The Gristmill


Done eating, now to shopping! They have neat little shops, with local foods and different things. This is my life theme!

Behind the store, hope it's not in use anymore! They really are resisting change!

Walking down the street looking back towards the Gristmill.

We found The Grapevine, did some wine tasting and bought 3 bottles of wine.
This was a pack of napkins in the wine store, cracked me up.

The Gruene Mansion Inn, bed and breakfast, would love to stay there sometime.

In the General Store, which had everything from ice cream to Christmas ornaments. We got fudge and coffee! And we had some fun too.
Obviously they didn't like Clinton!

It's Davey Mike!

Hillbilly "Brief" Case

hahahaha!

Down the street we found grillin in Gruene. Neat little place, stopped and got drinks, tried the Alamo Ale, it was very good.

Eventually we found a toy store, they had the neatest toys. Madison got cat ears to replace her worn out ones. Mike got a gun and bow & arrow.
