122st Gillespie County Fair Fredericksburg Chamber of Commerce Fredericksburg, TX

122st Gillespie County Fair Fredericksburg Chamber of Commerce Fredericksburg, TX

Pretty amazing event. 122nd time! That doesn't happen very often. It is a really old fashioned county fair. Stock shows, food venues, dances, and of course the Midway of fun...rides for all ages. Make plans now to celebrate Americana at its' best.

Very good read. Lot's to study and think about. You can almost taste and smell the wine and food.

Wanted to share quickly this great site I have found. And it just happens to have another way to use those wonderful peaches you are buying (hopefully in the FBG are). You can see all the choices of ways to mix and match the fruits that are available to you. Looks like a perfect weekend, easy, peasy, lemon squeezy dessert! Stay cool out there.

Looks like today's great source for fresh peach recipes and inspirations. Wish I had a Peach Mango Ice Pick...if you don't know that would be Peach Mango Ice Tea with a good shot of icy vodka of your choice. Cool yourself off.....Cheers!

Cowgirl Creamery - About Us

Cowgirl Creamery - About Us

What a wonderful find. This looks to be an interesting place. I will be ordering and letting you know what I think. However, I have been to Pt. S Reyes Station and all of the Bolinas area so my thoughts and memories are pouring into what this cheese could be like. It was one of the most glorious places I have every been. All along the peninsula is nothing but beauty and peace. Do a little research on this and see if you don't agree. Thunderous, crashing waves, and serene hiking trails among the elk await you! I can smell the eucalyptus as we rode with the window down letting the cool air wash through the car......
