Gruene Texas


Historic Greune Mansion

Look its a cow

After a fun and fabulous weekend at Schillterbahn in New Braunfels, we made a stop in Gruene. Pronounced like the color green. What a great quaint and historical little town. We did have too much time to wonder around, but we did have lunch at the Gristmill restaurant on the Guadeloupe River, and stopped by the Greune Hall which is famous for its many private performances of country music stars. We even made a quick trip to the General Store and had a small nostalgic treat of Pop-Rocks. Now I doubt that the old west ever had the pleasure of eating such an exciting snack, but Michael and I did have fun playing with our snack on the way home.

We definitely decided that our trip next summer to Schillterbahn needs to include an over night stay on the historic Mansion and an old time family portrait where you dress up like some one from the old west.--way cool place to visit!
