It's free…read moreto enter and you can wander around both the outdoor exhibits and the indoor exhibits at your leisure. A volunteer from the local historical society was welcoming and pointed us to a number of interesting objects that we might have overlooked, including a spinning wheel with a very interesting history. The outdoor exhibits are mostly cabins from the frontier era that have been generally outfitted as they might have been back in those times. They're all fascinating to look at and lovingly detailed. There's also a lot of farm equipment that's just kind of parked there; perhaps an exhibit on the evolution of farming would be useful to add? The indoor exhibits are almost overwhelming in the sheer variety of objects, but there's a good amount of explanatory detail (though some of it is a bit... dated). By the time you leave, you'll have a pretty solid appreciation for the local history of Burnet and a bit more for Texas as a whole.

A town founded as the county seat in 1852, built on cattle and quarries, steeped in Republic of Texas history pre and post civil war. The field of Bluebonnets viewed from the train were out of sight while at the festival, however rows of giant corn dog, funnel cake and craft stands lined the streets and city square. Cloudy skies did not slow the doghouse or weinerdog races, and the local country and western bands (both kinds) played on through the light showers. A small carnival added entertainment and a few thrills, along with a few entertaining "carnies ". Beautiful Bluebonnets, tastes of Texas BBQ and country culture made for a great day trip, and a drousy train ride back to Austin.
