Wanting a long weekend get-a-way, we checked theinternet and found a B&B on a lake in Granbury, a townwe had never heard of. We fell in love with Granbury.We saw some apartments across the lake from the B&B,and took a tour of the Estates. The next day we putdown a deposit and moved in 2 months later. During the6 years we have been here, we have fallen in love withthe other residents and the very attentive staff. Theykeep us very active. It's a wonderful place we call home.

JJune brings an amazing list of “must
do” to the valley of “wonderful-things-to-do!” The Granbury Wine Walkhost a weekend of unique wine, foodand music events on June 4th and 5th.The Wine Walk allows patrons toexperience live music, plus wine andfood tastings at various locations,cooking demonstrations, and artexhibitions around a two block area ofGranbury’s Historic Square.
With the celebration for our nation’sbattle for independence approaching, Iam overwhelmed with concerns for ourfreedom. The national debt threatens theUSA as much as the terrorist who seekto destroy us with weapons. In the midstof all this, I’ve grown even morethankful for our founding fathers andthe wisdom that inspired them.
In 1795 as Massachusetts Governor,Samuel Adams gave a proclamation fora Day of PUBLIC FASTING,
HUMILIATION and PRAYER. Ishare part of that proclamation asreminder to all of us that our freedom iswhat makes America great.
That he would direct the administrationof our Federal and State Governments, sothat the lives, liberties and property of allthe Citizens, and the just rights of thePeople, as Men and Citizens, may beforever acknowledged, and at all timesdefended, by Constitutions, founded uponequal rights; and by good and wholesomeLaws, wisely and judiciouslyadministered and duly executed…
~ SAMUEL ADAMS
May you and your family celebratefreedom!
