Old limestone houses! This Historic District is in the…read morenational register of historical places. It's a few square blocks around Main Street in downtown Fredericksburg. The Historic District is a fun, pedestrian friendly area that's a cool walk to wander. The buildings in the district were mostly built in the 1840's-1880's and later. There's a lot of limestone in the area, so the German settlers built Texas versions of their houses back home in Germany. The structures vary from old log cabins to impressive stone churches. Be sure to check out the Sunday Houses, which are town homes for people who lived out in the boonies, so they could come to town and do church stuff, and trade. The district is safe, there's always cops patrolling the area, and this town runs a bit slower than the big city. You can legally walk around in this district with an open beer! Cheers! They have a map on the internet of an official route, which shows off a few old churches, a few cool old homes, and some public buildings. Overall, there's more than 700 old structures in this district. The map shows off some of the highlights. It's a great stroll through Texas history!

This is our second visit to Vaudeville. We and another couple wanted to visit Pedernales Cellars,…read morewhich was a great experience and worthy of a separate Yelp review. During our wine tasting, we made reservations for a late lunch at Vaudeville. Reservations are highly recommended. Our server was excellent in all aspects...friendly, accommodating, recommendations, etc. I had a delicious French dip and my wife had the Reuben, which was also delicious. We split the two. The sandwiches are large and my wife took half of hers home. The vibe was cheerful....talking and laughter, but not at all too loud or obnoxious. If you are in Fredericksburg, I highly recommend Vaudeville. We have not had dinner there, but look forward to it on another occasion.

They offer free water bottles and cute homemade Fredericksburg sugar cookies made by a local bakery.

THE BLACK AND WHITE: The wife and I came here after one of our pickup parties to check out a new winery. This place is gorgeous and the owners put alot of effort into the vibe of the winery. Invention is under the Heath Family Brands wineries that include Grape Creek, Heath Sparkling, K Estate, and Jenblossom Cellars. We got one of their classic tastings that include 4 pours in which we got to choose. We got 1 white, 1 rose and 2 reds. The white and rose were alright, the tempranillo was the best tasting, however the wines here were just ok. THE FINAL BAMBOO: A tasting was around $30 for the classic. The sparkling wine tour looks fun and that's something I'd come back to see

Yes, you heard me... once upon a few 100 years ago, some German immigrants, managed to found a town in which their heritage (religion, food, manners, buildings, household appliances) could be maintained.
