When in Texas....

Do what any junker/blogger would do. Cram two days of exploring into the two hours you have free!
This oh- so- romantic southern town
Boerne, TX. (pronounced Bernie- population 9,000) - sits just outside of San Antonio.
The quaint Main St. is lined with to- die- for shops... Texas Style.... Love the iron balcony at this upstairs boutique... That sits next to this restaurant-which was beautifully lit up at night and bustling with people sitting OUTDOORS- (temp. a spring like 65 degrees...)
Well, La Te Da....
Take a peek inside...
I Could have spent hours in this adorable boutique, I only had ten minutes..
Beautiful vignettes, eye candy everywhere...
Dear Santa, I could take much better pictures with a RLS...
They say everything is bigger in Texas...
Forget the Hilton, give me a Mom and Pop motel any day...
The courtyard that leads to the restaurant adjoined to the motel...
EVERYONE in Texas wears cowboy boots...
( building- circa 1908)
I promise next time I visit it will be for more then 48 hours!
Boerne, I heart you!

Has anyone seen this "china" pattern?

I found ONE plate at a estate sale and would LOVE to get more. I googled and binged and did not come up with any leads. It is labeled "Majestic Crown" and is by Montgomery Wards. (remember them?)
(still don't know how to operate my camera-like turn the flash off for instance)
