January is going to be full of catch up posts I suppose. Here is another in another great town - Granbury! Granbury is just a short drive outside of the Fort Worth area and a town that I absolutely love to visit. The town square is where it's at. Centered around the courthouse, the square is full of unique shops where you can find just about anything you are looking for (plus things that you're not even looking for). It's a great place to do some shopping with some girlfriends, a significant other or even just by yourself.
And a historic area it is. These signs can be found all over the place. Be sure to stop by a few to check them out!
Something that I love about these old Texas towns - the Courthouse. They can usually be found within the town square. I love Granbury's.
To go with the antique signs, antique cars!
Here's a another piece of history that you can catch in the area - I caught the tail end of a shoot out. I'm not sure what happened but as I walked over this lady had a gun and there was only three left standing (and one of them was a Sheriff) and there were about three guys down on the ground. Good thing they got the three year old little boy from the crowd to come take the bad guy away!
In all seriousness, Granbury is a very historic. As mentioned, there's many, many historical markers, many old businesses and homes (which have been turned into B&B's). Here is my favorite in town that was decorated so beautifully!
In each corner of the square around the court house, these giant Christmas trees were decorated. Yes, that's a chair in the tree! They were all different! LOVE IT!








I love Granbury! i took my cousin this past summer - she just moved to texas from atlanta.

ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable town! And the shoot out sounds like a lot of fun - I bet the three year old LOVED dragging the bad guy away!
