A Beautiful Day For A Ride From Victoria Texas To Boerne Texas!

It Was A Beautiful Day To Ride From Victoria Texas To Boerne Texas! I missed up, It was the Proctor-Green House, not the Chisholm Trail Heritage Museum, but still part of the museum! Well, it was still pretty cool to see the area and find a Geocache. I stopped by the DeWitt County Courthouse, which was awesome! I need to go back there and check out the inside. I separated this video from this video because it was really cool. The link is down below.

I made my way up to Nixon Cemetery in Nixon Texas and found a geocache there and then I stop downtown Nixon Texas to check out the really cool to murals they had there. I was getting really hungry and it was way past lunch, so I made my way up to Adkins Texas just south of San Antonio, Texas at Texas pride barbecue. They had some really good barbecues and a great venue there to maybe do a charity for a writing for a cure. I separated this video out, and the link is down below.

I finally made my way up to David Canada’s house. Today was an awesome ride!

Texas Pride Barbecue Adkins Texas

Today I was headed towards Boerne, Texas and I decided to stop at Texas Pride Barbecue just South of San Antonio to try out their brisket.
This place has been on my list for a while and I finally got the chance to stop by.
Texas Pride Barbecue has been on the food channel featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.
Their brisket is pretty darn good and worth stopping by and trying out. If you’re ever in the San Antonio area, I highly recommend you stop by and eat at Texas Pride Barbecue, you won’t be disappointed.

De Witt County Courthouse Cuero Texas • 02-04-2023

Awesome weather today in Texas for a ride from Victoria to Boerne. I stopped in Cuero to check out the De Witt Texas County Courthouse. Courthouse was closed today because it was Saturday, but that’s a good reason to come back to check out the inside of this gorgeous courthouse.

DeWitt County has had three courthouses: 1847, 1858, 1897 in three different cities, including its present county seat, Cuero. On Sunday night, April 8, 1894, the second courthouse was torched. My research did not reveal the two to other cities. I think the first one was in Clinton in De Witt county, which is now a ghost town.

Completed in 1896, the Richardsonian architectural design courthouse was designed by Texas-born and Austin-based architect Arthur Osborn Watson and completed under the supervision of Eugene T. Heiner. The three-story structure, with its six-story clock tower, built of rusticated Pecos and Leon sandstone in hues of light brown and red polished granite columns, and granite steps makes this beautiful courthouse stand out in this Community.

Dewitt County Courthouse:
307 N Gonzales St, Cuero, TX 77954
