I've got some friends who will be in the area this weekend and want me to give them an insider's tour of Wimberley. Then, in a couple of weeks, I'm hosting a cousins reunion here, and some of them will want a tour as well. My problem is, there's no such thing as a one-tour-fits-all solution, and small though Wimberley may be, you'd wear yourself to a frazzle if you tried to fit it all in at once, especially in the summer heat.
So, I'm trying to come up with a set of five or six either/or options that will help me tailor these
quickie tours to the individuals. Here's what I've got so far:
- Choose one: Wimberley Glassworks, where they have continual glass-blowing demonstrations in an air-conditioned gallery, or, Old Oaks Ranch, with shopping for all things yarn related, alpacas, and a great sculpture garden?
- Lunch: The Leaning Pear (gourmet locavore soups, salads, sandwiches) or Mima's (grandma's made from scratch tacos)?
- Shops (great shoe store, Blue Willow, Wall St. Western, River House, Circa and Kiss the Cook) or Galleries (Wimberley Art League show @ Community Ctr., Bent Tree Gallery artists' co-op, and Gallery on the Square)?
- Afternoon break: sno-cones at a shaded picnic table, DQ Blizzards, or cool libations on Inoz' shady terrace overlooking the creek?
- Drive-by peeks at The Blue Hole, Wimberley Players Theater, and the Corral outdoor theater, on the way home.
