Stop and Smell the Flowers in Blanco

Standing in a sun-kissed field surrounded by colorful blooms sounds like the kind of thing you can only do in the spring. Not so at Texas Specialty Cut Flowers , where vibrant flowers paint the landscape throughout the year. Come in the spring for the blue cornflowers and tulips or visit in the fall to see salvias, lilies, and marigolds. When you’re not taking it all in, step inside The Blue Barn to purchase your own fresh-cut flowers and check out the selection of farm-fresh eggs and goat cheeses.

If you are in Blanco in the late spring or early summer, don’t miss a visit to the nearby Hill Country Lavender Farm. Strolling among the blooms and breathing in their sweet aromas is a treat for the senses, while the lavender soaps, lotions, and bath products for sale give you the chance to take some of the magic home with you.

In most places, stopping and smelling the flowers might be a cliché. In Blanco, it’s one of the best things you can do, regardless of when you’re here.

At 120 miles long, Palo Duro Canyon is a spectacular natural wonder that you can (and should) get lost in.

Epic Off-Road Tours Are a Must
One of the best ways you can see Palo Duro Canyon is on a tour with Palo Duro Creek Ranch. Climb into the passenger seat of a Humvee and watch as the awe-inspiring rock formations and wide-open valleys pass by as you bounce along well-worn trails.

You Can Cruise Along the Historic Route 66
Back in the heyday of American road tripping, Amarillo was a key stop on the Mother Road of America, Route 66. Park your car and set out on a window-shopping extravaganza as the area has nearly 50 locally owned art galleries and antique, craft, and vintage shops full of one-of-a-kind finds.

Amarillo is Home to One of Texas’ Coolest Roadside Attractions
Travel west from Amarillo along what was once Route 66 and you’ll come across a true Texas oddity, Cadillac Ranch. Wander around each car to take in all the art or bring a can of spray paint to leave your own mark.

Enjoy an Old-Fashioned Movie Screening
In Amarillo, you can take your foot off the gas and enjoy a show at one of the last remaining drive-in theaters in Texas. Pull in to the Tascosa Drive-In Theater for a throwback experience you probably haven’t had before.

For more information, go to VisitAmarillo.com, or check out their page on TourTexas.com.

3 Reasons to Visit Lubbock Now

As the first-ever designated Cultural Arts District in the state of Texas, local, national, and international talents are taking center stage and raising a glass in Lubbock. Through any medium, art is a work of passion and dedication that inspires the beholder with each new experience. Every performer, artist, and brewmaster in Lubbock’s Cultural Arts District is a master of their craft.

Lubbock’s newest attraction, The Buddy Holly Hall of Performing Arts and Sciences, has taken the art scene by storm. This world-class theater is home to touring Broadway shows, headlining concerts and events, Ballet Lubbock, Lubbock Symphony Orchestra, as well as a partnership with Lubbock Independent School District. With an NC-15 sound quality rating that rivals performance halls like Carnegie Hall, every voice and instrument will project the highest-quality sound to each patron, making every ticket the best seat in the house.

Artists from around the world make their way to the Charles Adams Studio Project to learn for themselves how the grandeur of the Wild West is the ideal blank canvas as they begin a career in creativity. As part of the program, artists are provided the necessary resources, studio space, and expertise of a seasoned professional at no cost, with the only expectation that they participate in Lubbock’s monthly art festival, the First Friday Art Trail.

We would be remiss not to mention the most unlikely of artisans at Two Docs Brewing Co. If you have ever had a bold IPA, you know craft beer is truly an art. From your choice of a sour to a bock, and even house-made, old-fashioned Root Beer, many brews pay homage to our favorite Lubbockisms. After a visit and cold glass of Chilton Gose, Two Docs will inspire you to become the master of your own craft.
