  • Most people that stop in Luling fill up with gas and grab some snacks at Buc-ee's on their way to other destinations. Today this town is our primary destination.

    My dad’s hometown. I have so many wonderful childhood memories of Luling. Spent so many wonderful summers in Luling with my cousins. Swimming in the rivers, enjoying the parks and skating rink. Back in the good ole days when we could walk all over without a care in the world. Luling will always have a special place in my heart. ❤️

    thank you so much for these stories of seemingly 'forgotten' Texas, I am loving them!--I was born in the Panhandle 75 years ago and I have heard of many of these towns, places and have been to some of them--I have lived in Texas, Wyoming, Phoenix and now in NW Arkansas and Texas still has a big place in my heart !!

    The Mayfield Preserve on West 35th Street in Austin has massive palmettos down by the water of Lake Austin. There are a few dwarf palmettos around town also, usually near water.

    Always enjoy your videos. Find out about places I know so little about. Noticed the delicious Dr Pepper on the table and wondered if you'd been to Dublin and seen the bottling plant there. They said it's the largest collection of Dr Pepper merch in private ownership. Very cool place.
