Some More New Braunfels For Thanksgiving

 Although these photos were taken around Halloween.



I had some company. You see deer all over town. Herds in vacant lots and in backyards. You have to be very, very, careful driving in New Braunfels. 






Deep regrets that the lot full of "junk" was vacant. The antique shop associated with all that stuff is no longer in business. That's a shame. A lot of that stuff I would have liked to hang on my fence by the patio. The only "ambience" worth having is that of a junkyard. There's nothing as sublime as a junkyard. You can keep your cathedrals. Give me a junkyard.

Ah, New Braunfels

 Where the living is good.






I just can't stand the climate. You have to be able to tolerate sticky heat, day and night, during the summer.





It's no wonder they consume vast amounts of ice cold beer down there.

Still In New Braunfels

 The town dates back to 1846. German to the core.






These things have been sitting downtown, or close to it, for years. And there was nobody around, so it felt safe to wander around and take pics. 





If I'd actually gone downtown where it was somewhat crowded, believe me, I'd have worn a mask. I'll finish with Landa Park, where many improvements have been made, but first I've got this railroad stuff to complete.
