Bandera, Texas

The last time we visited Bandera Texas, was in 1993 when Bev was posted to Ft Sam Houston.  Bandera is a small country town about an hours drive from San Antonio and has a population of some 970 people. It is the self proclaimed Cowboy Capital of the World.

It is a typical American small town which features all the stores we have seen in the Western movies of a bigone era, but now with a modern twist.

In 1993 the banner below read 'Welcome Winter Shooters".

Some of you may of heard us mention the Arky Blue's Silver Dollar Saloon.  Happy to say it is still the same as it was in 1993.

 Even has the same sawdust floors.

It was fun to return to Bandera where it seems life has changed little since 1993.

Best wishes,
Bev and Ross
