(get directions)
We'll meet at 9:15am, with a drivers' meeting at 9:30am and a departure at 9:45am.
The drive will head southwest toward San Marcos, where we'll take a short rest to stretch our legs. From there, we'll head west and then south into New Braunfels to have lunch at approximately 11:30am.
Our lunch stop will be at Schoebel's Restaurant.
This is a family-style restaurant and features a buffet of "6 farm fresh vegetables, a variety of hand-cut meats, soup, salad bar and several homemade desserts." A drink is included in the price of $10.95 per person. Of course, you can elect to order from the menu also.
We have a separate dining area reserved but, if the weather cooperates, can take our meals on the outdoor deck overlooking the river.
From there, it's about an hour northwest and back to San Marcos, where, believe it or not, there's a winery.
Three Dudes Winery was established in 2005 and is located just east of IH-35, which is probably why no one knows they exist. (more info)
They have an event room, also overlooking the river, that's reserved for us. We'll have the opportunity to sample several varieties of their wines for $5 per person.
