First, the University of Texas volleyball team beat San Diego to head to the championship game against Louisville tomorrow night!! I would hate for you not to know that. Fingers and toes crossed for tomorrow. Not sure we’ll be able to watch the game as it’s on ESPN 2, but we’ll at least follow online on the iPad.
Back to Comfort. As we learned from our walkabout today, Comfort was one of a few communities in the Texas Hill Country settled by a group of German Freethinkers . Freethinkers we’re predominantly German intellectuals who advocated reason and democracy over religious and political autocracy. They were sympathetic to the Union during the American Civil War, so many chose to leave for other areas in the US or back to Germany during that time.
After my run and some online work this am, we ambled along High Street to peruse some really cute stores.









but owned by a local winemaker.
We hope to try his local winery and wine tomorrow.

Hi Bob, Beth,
I like the look of Comfort plus it always amazes me how clean and tidy these wee towns are, they have a pride in where they live something we in the main have lost in the UK.
Hope Bob is well on the road to recovery after his surgery.
Wishing you both a wonderful festive season and the very best for 2023
Best Regards Stan,Mary & Otter.
