At least once or twice a year we try and do a mini vacation visiting places in Texas.  This past weekend we made a trip to Boerne TX.  We first thought the pronunciation sounded like "born" but later discovered it is pronounced like "bernie".  Bob decided we spent the weekend with Bernie, a pun on the movie.  We stayed at Tapatio Springs which is a golf resort.  Even though we took golf clubs the weather was not nice enough to golf. At this time of the year there are very few people there so the price of the resort is very reasonable. So it it worth it to take a chance of being able to golf and if you can't you are staying in a beautiful place for a good price. It is in a hill country setting surrounded by wild life including an abundance amount of deer.  

Boerne is a German town. Many of the restaurants have German food or cook with a German flair.  We had lunch at Little Gretel.  We especially enjoyed the Kolaches.

We spent a few hours walking and  browsing the unique shops in town and strolling through Market Days.  There were benches everywhere which made it easy for me to stay a while.  I would definitely like to go back some day.
