While still in Fredericksburg, TX we took a short drive SE. |
We were told it was a must to go to Luckenback, TX while in the area. The Thomas Michael Riley Music Festival was going on that weekend. |
Believe it or not, entrance was free, at least when we went in around 1PM. |
Luckenback was established in 1849 as a Trading Post and consisted of a Dance Hall, Beer Joint, and General Store, on 10 acres surrounded by huge oaks trees and two creeks. |
Me standing in front of the U.S. Post Office and General Store. |
We took a walk around the General Store to see what was up. |
We could hear music and found that the Wolf Sisters were playing at that time. |
It definitely was a toe stomping good time. |
We wandered into the General Store and found a bar in there also. |
Outside again we found Tumbleweed (the steer) tied to a post, Joe got into the whole Texas thing, and thought he would try riding a Texas Long Horn Steer. |
Joe started to get into it as Tumbleweed's owner told Joe to raise his arm and smile! |
As we wandered around I found this real colorful hen. |
There were a lot of motorcyclists at the festival that day. |
If you wanted to fit in, you could purchase a cowboy hat. |
The Wolf Sisters |
The women and men's bathrooms were very quaint. |
The Beer Saloon. |
It was past lunch time so we went over to the outside restaurant to check out the menu. |
After lunch we walked across a swing bridge to take a look at the creek and found this Texas shaped campfire. |
Looking back toward where the crowd was jamming still. |
Luckenback is also famous for it's huge population of 3 people. |
