Wimberley Texas

This past week my parents were in town to visit and on Monday, we were looking for something interesting to do.  After a few conversations, we decided to take the short drive to Wimberley, Texas.  Driving from South Austin to Wimberley we took Ranch Road 12 out of Dripping Springs.  This drive is a very beautiful and curvy.  As you drive along, on either side of the road are ranches and smaller farms with rolling hills all around you.   In the distance, you can see the larger hills that abound in this area of central Texas.  I always enjoy this drive because of the beauty.  Upon our arrival in Wimberley, we walked around the unique shops and galleries they have there.  We enjoyed our day in the beautiful town, had lunch at the Wimberley Cafe and purchased a few items. Mid afternoon, we decided to take a drive down River Road and take in the homes along the Blanco River.  Just another beautiful drive.  And by the way, if you like this area, check out my listing of a lot for sale in River Oaks.  It is a 5 acre lot that will make a great home site for some lucky buyer!

I had an artist friend visiting me from New Jersey and we took her to Wimberly.

She absolutely fell in love with the town.  We especially enjoyed the metal animal sculptures.  

If you are looking for a nice weekend, I'd recommend a trip to Wimberly.

Wimberley has always been a favorite. We used to go swimming at a place calle "Blue Hole." You could swing off a rope into the creek. It was a blast. (and you can see why they called it Blue Hole) I love going to Wimberley because the ride alone is relaxing and then you get into the downtown area and it's like going back into time. It looks like a small Western, cowboy town. There's a great stained glass place there.

Wimberley is a great weekend escape!  The first Saturday Market days are really fun and I particularly love to visit the glass blowing shop.  .. such originality.
