Austin Hill Country


2015-02 Hill Country: This photo album documents some of our adventures in the hill country around Austin during our winter trip of 2015.

We made it out of the city a couple of times to investigate wineries -- there are some good ones (but beware many are using grapes grown in other parts of Texas). We also found a place growing and pressing olives and brought back some really good olive oil.

One of my favorite BBQ's is the "Salt Lick" near Dripping Springs. I was very surprised to discover you could also get Salt Lick BBQ at the airport!

On one of our wine tours we went to Poodies Roadhouse near Spicewood where we saw Tessy Lou and the Shotgun Stars -- I liked her music but the sound system wasn't very good.

And finally there's some pictures of Gruene Texas where we had a lunch at the Old Mill and caught an afternoon show by the Bo Phillips Band at Gruene Hall.
