I went to Gruene on Sunday - pronounced Green.  This is the dance Hall there which is supposed to be the oldest in Texas.  It is like being in an old Barn.  The bar to the right is just inside the door and then you go past it and get to the room below where bands play on a continual basis for free concerts.  Some nights they have special people come and then you have to pay.

 Beside where the beer cases are is where the band was.  At the far end you can barely see the stage.
Below I took a picture out the side where the pool tables are and yes that is right there are no walls on the hall... goes out to a patio outside.

Nice tables !

Just outside the hall there was a fire hydrant - very weird looking one at that ... The even put barn boards around the garbage pail.

Across from the hall is of course the General Store.  It sells penny candy - old fashioned and lots of different salsa.  Note all the motorcycles... the town was full of them all coming to see the sites.

This is a bed and breakfast that also rented out rooms in other buildings as far as I could tell.

Look careful see the door in the middle... takes you to your room for the night.

The sign above the door leading to this one said it was the pent house suite

If you want more water to take to your room just pump some for yourself using this pump.  Worked just like the one in the Hill.

There were new subdivisions being built but I didn't take pictures.  They are new but are being built like they are old with wood logs and cobblestone.   There is a spa, tea room, antique stores and novelty stores.  Every third Sunday is a market day with lots of artists coming to town apparently.  If I go back I will take more pictures.  Everything else is going well as usual.
