  • Round Top is a charming historic community about halfway between Houston and Austin in the rolling countryside of the Stephen Austin's former colony. Join me as I tour this small town and the surrounding area.
    Below is a link for antiques shows coming in the second half of October 2021

    I am really enjoying your tours of Texas, especially the one on Round Top. One of the old homes was the home of Bernard Scherrer, my great-great grandfather. All of your videos have helped us plan our visits to interesting places in Texas. Thank you !!!

    Since finding your channel I have learned so much. And I love that in all the towns you go to you film at least one church. Or several like with the painted churches. Thank you for finding these beautiful places for us.

    I enjoyed your tour of Round Top very much and especially your mention of Bernard Scherrer. He was my great great grandfather. We love to visit his old cabin on Henkel Square.

    Would love to see some videos on those small towns off of 290 between Austin and Houston! I love passing though Manor, Elgin, and Carmine (frozen in time) but I never have time to get out and explore !

    This town is near-completely centered around its periodic giant antique fairs--when the area literally squirms with people in cars. On those weekends it's (literally) bumper-to-bumper on the country roads. A woman in town told us it took her an hour-and-a-half last time to get to work. If you wish to duck the mobs on off weeks it's hit-or-miss what's open. Some places have red-white-and-blue "open" flags waving in the wind but you discover "closed" signs on their doors after you park. We went into Popi Burger in the square for lunch and the waitress and staff ignored us--in fact, from their expressions we were a nuisance for being there. So, we drove to another town to eat. Beware watching this very nice video and thinking that's actually how it is. There must be some nice places to visit and eat in Roundtop but not all visits are good. Apparently you either go with the mob or take a chance on a lot of stuff being closed.
