New Braunfels Wurstfest Fire

The annual Wurstfest was going on in New Braunfels while I was there, but my cousin just informed me via email that about 1/2 of it burned down this morning (11/16/2019). That is a big event for this town. Later today I will post more of the pics I took there earlier. I never would have imagined something like this happening.

Not such great weather for a walk, but I needed to see what I could photograph.

This is a new house going up on a vacant lot and it is in an old style because that area is designated "historic". If you build there it must be something consistent with the existing structures. And this one is. As you can see, it had rained.

And old barber shop. Spaces between building are almost too narrow for comfortable utility access. That was not a consideration when these things were constructed, back in the day. I stepped inside the barber shop to get out of the drizzle and get some pics.

They had some interesting stuff on display. I did not photograph everything...

... and I moved on, toward downtown.

So, as I said, I started "close to home", as it where...

And I looked at familiar things.

Details of familiar things...

It was actually kind of cold and rainy at this time, but I walked downtown. Those pics come up next.

Lots of pics and I'll do six at a time, more or less. Starting with some details in a familiar place.

First of all, there are deer all over town, herds of them. Not unusual to see somebody's backyard with a buck, several does, and a bunch of fawns. Drive carefully. Nobody knows what to do about this problem.

Details.

More details.

I'm going to get as much mileage from these pics as I can. It will take me well into December to get them all posted!

This is by courtesy of my cousin, who visited the storage area behind a large Antique Shop. Visiting that place again and getting lots of pics is on my agenda.

You never know what you will find there!
