I was driving back from Victoria, TX in late August and saw the banner ad for the Fayette Co Fair across two light poles as I drove into downtown La Grange, TX. I spent many Easter weekends of my childhood here in this small Texas town, and have many fond memories of this place as a place of celebration, relaxation, and introspection. My stepfather’s family is from here, and still lives here, and I cherish any time I get to spend with them. Jessica and I came to experience a small county fair, and also took in some other sights in the city, including the Kreische Brewery/Monument Hill, Texas Quilt Museum, and the M-K-T Depot museum. We got to pet some really friendly cows, and ate some really, really good pizza and sandwiches at Reba’s. All in all, a great time spent here in this nostalgic Texas town of my childhood.
