    I'm told that Black's BBQ in Lockhart is very, very good BBQ - but I haven't been. 'Course, that's in the wrong direction from Buda.

    Blacks is excellent, as good as the best in Lockhart, with a better sides selection. Less of an "event" to dine at (which is both good and bad).

    It's "on the way to Buda" for many. ;-)

    Well, I drove it again just yesterday, but I really just posted it for an anytime drive. Maybe it could be tweaked into an event. Hmm...

    Any interest in a two-day gimmick rally type affair, with an option for just a single day for those who only want to drive? Low key, self-arranged accommodations.

    Devil's Backbone is just south of this route from San Marcos to Blanco, using RM 12 and 32. It's a nice route, wider and less twisty than it was in the "old days" (pre Canyon Lake development explosion). It still goes through Fischer, which is sort of a Luckenbach for Baptists.

    ;-)

    Smittys and Kreuz Market are awesome to grab and go. Black's is a better place to have a seat and chow down.
