We keep talking about doing something different, like taking a family cruise or meeting at someone’s house. But I’ll bet we end up back at the ranch, despite the fact that there is not a Starbuck’s and thus no ready fix for my dad’s quad iced venti cafe americano addiction.
If anyone wants to open a local coffee shop, Bandera is the place to do it. My family alone for a week could keep you in business.

That’s really so nice – great times and wonderful memories for everyone! Don’t worry about no Starbucks – you wouldn’t appreciate this time so much without a little sacrifice.
