Leave No Trace: outdoor ethics
Leave No Trace: outdoor ethics
Think about the last time you walked around outside even if it was just to or from your vehicle. You probably saw trash on the ground or blowing around. Did you stop and pick it up? 12/04/2022 12:00 AM

The gift of reading
The gift of reading
I’ve been reading books with a theme, once again. For the last several months I devoured any books I could get my hands on about libraries or bookshops. Then I discovered a sub-genre, if you will, among these. I was drawn to books that explored the idea of “the gift of reading.” I found this in both fiction and non-fiction titles. 11/27/2022 12:00 AM
Beer road trip: New Braunfels – Part
Beer road trip: New Braunfels – Part
Guadalupe Brewing Co. got its start as many small breweries do, making beer in a pieced together system in a leased warehouse space. Bordered by farmland and a massive limestone quarry and cement plant on the southwestern edge of New Braunfels, Keith and Anna Kilker have spent years moving away from the warehouse and tasting-room vibe to create a destination. 11/27/2022 12:00 AM

Chris Elliff named Boerne Art League Artist of the Month
Chris Elliff has been interested in painting since early childhood. However, marriage and raising three sons, delayed her artistic development. After a career in nursing, and an extended education in the health field -- Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Master of Science in Nursing, and Master in Public Health, she retired early to get a handle on personal health issues. With her children educated, married and independent, she returned to her pursuit of art. With limited formal painting instruction, and only one undergraduate class, she has developed her own style and vision. Initially realism was her focus. 10/30/2022 12:00 AM

Signs of the Season: A Two-Part Series on Land Management
It is that time of year when we welcome the first cool breaths of the north wind, the shortening of the photoperiod, warm cast iron vats of venison chili, and the addition of pumpkin spice to everything that we eat, smell or wear. The squirrels are secretly storing away their winter food cache, winter migrants are making their way through, and the leaves are slowly changing. Fall is here, so we are here to help you prepare your lawns and lands for the cooler months ahead in this two-part series. 10/30/2022 12:00 AM

And in the spirit of children’s literature, today I’ll talk about the great lineup we have for kids and families at this year’s book festival. 09/25/2022 12:00 AM
28 Songs Brewhouse + Kitchen coming to Main and Market
28 Songs Brewhouse + Kitchen coming to Main and Market
Boerne’s brewing and restaurant scene keeps growing, and the latest addition coming in spring 2023 is keeping the ball rolling on both fronts. The planned 28 Songs Brewhouse + Kitchen will be the first brewery on North Main Street and owners vow to have something for everyone’s tastes. The plan is to have 28 taps with a mix of housemade beers and guest taps, but the goal is to eventually have a wide variety of 28 of their own beers on, said Don Kretz, a managing partner in the enterprise and a homebrewer for 25 years. 09/25/2022 12:00 AM
