A short day trip to Roundtop and Brenham, Texas, yesterday. A 2 hour drive takes one from the metropolis of Houston to a different world. Roundtop is known for it antiques festival and arts and crafts shopping. It is just a spot in the road really, but has several restaurants whose decor reflects their setting (rustic), and their food is wonderful. A fiber arts show was in progress at one of the galleries and had wonderful art including handmade furniture and clocks, pottery, glass works, paintings, jewelry, and more. We topped off our trip with a visit to the Brenham Art League's Gallery before heading back to the city. We resolved to return to Brenham for a tour of the Blue Bell Ice Cream Factory and associated tastings.
