When my husband, my sister and I visited there in 1997, we doubled the population!

Everybody's somebody in Luckenbach.

Hey Cora, when you were in Luckenbach Texas did ya see Waylan, Willie and the Boy's? I passed through there once a few years back and that song was stuck in my mind for days. Even now while typing this I'm hearing that song in my head!

But they were getting the dance hall ready for something that evening. I don't recall if anybody famous (or infamous) was going to be the entertainment for a dance or what was going on.

There were quite a few cars there that day, and the postcard shop was kind of a very rustic ramshackle-type building.

It was fun.

We were spending the winter in Fredericksburg, Texas. I'd love to go back there some time. We rented a one hundred-year-old German cottage. We spent one entire day going through Admiral Nimitz's Museum. Saw the miniture Japanese sub that had been sunk at Pearl Harbor. Looked too small to hold two men. 'Course Japanese men were smaller (in every way) than American men. I bought some submarine books for Elmer, and also a set of silver dolphins. He told me they were ugly! What gratitude.

Also visited LBJ's ranch a couple times. What a character he was, both in public and private life.
