“Let’s Go to Luckenbach Texas”
Have you ever heard the country song, “Let’s Go to Luckenbach Texas?” While in Texas, we stumbled upon this interesting spot and stopped in for a brief visit.
Although we expected a town, instead we found a little attraction of sorts. It’s set in a beautiful rural area, with sprawling oak trees. There are about four buildings, all of which are unpainted and open air. There’s a saloon:

A bath room building,
a general store, and a dance hall, not shown. That’s it. No houses or anything.
This spot is very popular with bikers, but we also saw several families. The dance hall provides live music every weekend, and local roosters provide the “music” the rest of the time.
We stopped for a yummy snack of “curly fries.” This consists of a potato spiral cut in front of the customer and then fried up into one long continuous potato chip. Isn’t it pretty?
This was a very fun stop, especially since we just happened upon it. I love that sort of adventure!

P.S. I think there’s a rooster quilt in my future.
