Hey, look at that Pecan !

Seguin, Texas proposed to have the worlds largest pecan but then another city, in Missouri, has claimed that title.  Not to be outdone, Seguin is now gathering funds so that they can increase the size of their pecan and get the title back. Only in America !!



This is in the same city park as the pecan, we were looking for a Five and Dime that I had remembered from when I was here with my mom.  We didn't find the store but did get this picture so a worthwhile stroll !

 
Gruene is a town we were told to visit and we expected it to be a German town but what we found was a town that was quaint and clearly all about sidewalk cafes, antique stores and probably has a pretty booming night life. We enjoyed browsing around and it was fun to visit but I don't think it will make our Top 10 list, with the exception of the wind chimes we saw.

Look at the size of these wind chimes !  They have wonderful sounds too...might be a little loud to hang in a subdivision but then if you could afford them, you probably have a great big secluded house !


Back to our campground for cards and a wonderful dinner !  Weather update: Clear skies, wind is back and temps are in the high 80's.  I'm a happy camper... Joe, Henry and Linda...not so much ! xxoo TML
