Enjoy beverages under the 500 year old oak! Grab a bite to eat from the onsite food truck, Cowboy Cantina. There's live music most days, my personal favorite is Trace of Gold - Greg & Lisa, a singer/songwriter duo with acoustic guitars.

Be sure to stop by Garrison Brothers Distillery for a bourbon tour at 1827 Hye Albert Road, Hye. The bourbon is top notch and the hospitality is five star. Grab a flight/bourbon cocktail and a bite to eat at The Whiskey Shack. My husband Jack is the executive chef so I'm partial. As you plan your itinerary, keep in mind that Texas doesn't allow spirits sales on Sunday if you might want to take a bottle home.

Take in some live music at Luckenbach at 412 Luckenbach Town Loop, Fredericksburg. Weekend days are bit touristy but worth the visit. It completely transforms to a local spot on weekend nights. It's worth the price of admission (usually around $15) especially if you like to two-step.

A winding scenic drive, live music on the patio, thousands of bats emerging at twilight from an old railroad tunnel nearby—could there be a more perfect Hill Country evening? This funky joint is famous for what Texas Monthly once dubbed the third-best burger in Texas; be sure to specify a jalapeño cheese bun (makes a big difference). A basket of delicious hand-cut fries feeds the whole table.
