While Destination Fredricksburg is attractive to some, my Objective leading this drive is to delight our MBCA Members with off the beaten path landmark Suspension Bridges, Texas spring flower bloom and a Garrison Distillery private tour, all certain to delight your senses. These attractions are familiar from my repeat visits and are consistantly memorable. My wife and I drove the route this same weeked in 2019 and were delighted with the good roads, bridges and a continuous carpet of wildflowers that, according to Wildseed Farms, had yet to peak. I especially look forward to this time of year for mild weather, spring color and outdoor attractions.
