Aia maoli nōʻo Kerrville i kahi kaona o ke kūlanakauhale, kahi e hiki ai iāʻoe ke pana i ke kaʻa a huli i ka wāwae, eʻike nui ana i ka manawa pōkole loa.

E koho i ka palapala 'āina o ka' āina eʻike ai i kahi i noho ai ka Smokehouse, Arcadia Theatre, Pampell Opera House a me Schreiner Dept. Store.
E hele i ke alanui a komo i ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike o Hill (weheʻiaʻo Wed-Sat 11: 30-3: 30), i kūkuluʻia i ka makahiki 1879 e nā mea akamai pōhaku a me nā pōhaku kālai pōhaku mai Germany no Capt Charles Charles Schreiner, he mea poʻokela a poʻokela o Kerrville.
Hōʻikeʻia ka papa pāpaʻi, i hanaʻia heʻumi mau lāʻau palahalaha, a me ka manawa hana a me nā mea kahiko mai nā makahiki 1850 a hiki i 1930. E noi i kāu kiko'ī e pili ana i ka "puka" i hoʻohanaʻia e ke kāpena e mālama kālā no kāna mau kauā!
ʻO kaʻaoʻao ma hope aʻe, ma ke keʻena o mua,ʻo ia ka Kerr Arts & Cultural Center, kahi i hana ai nāʻenehana a me nāʻano kuhi heʻumikumamālima i kēia.
Hiki ke hoʻololi i nā hōʻike i loko o ka makahiki, i ho'ākākaʻia e ka Texas Furniture Makers Hōʻike i kēlā me kēia hāʻule. Ua hōʻikeʻia nā hanana i ka pūnaewele pūnaewele o Center.
E hele wāwae i ke alanui wai a hele ma waena o kekahi o nā keʻena ... hiki ke kohoʻiaʻo Rivers Edge Gallery ma 832 Water St. Roxie. Hoʻokomoʻoe iāʻoe i kahi kūʻai. E huli i kahi mea āu e makemake ai a e hoʻokuʻu i kā lākou mea hana maʻalahi e hoʻolilo iā ia i waiwai waiwai noʻoe. Eia hou aku, e hoʻi i ka manawa ma Sunrise Antique Mall, kahi lua mau papahana kahiko e noho nei i nā hale he nui o nā mea kahiko e hōʻike ana a kūʻai aku ana i ka china, glassware, mea hale, lole waina, mau puke, Coca Cola memo, art, aʻoi aku. ʻO kekahi manawa e hoʻokipa aiʻo Rosetta i ka lima e hoʻokipa iāʻoe ae hoʻolohe i kāu mau helu o "mākou hoʻohana i kekahi o kēia mau" no ka mālamaʻia o kāu kūʻai i kūʻaiʻia no kahi mālama o ka lā.
Loaʻa iāʻoe ka manawa ma mua o kaʻaina awakea a hiki i 1550 Bandera Hwy. i ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike o nā'Āina'Āina. E hoʻolālā i kou ala ma mua o ka heleʻana a hiki i kahi komo, kahi i hoʻonaniʻia ai ke kiʻi o ka Honua a me ka lāʻau o ka hale a kāpae i waho i waho i waho i alakaʻiʻiaʻoe i 14,000 sq ft o ke kiʻikuhi kiko'ī, i hoʻolaʻaʻia i nāʻoihana limahana o ka poʻe i makemake e mālama i ka moʻomeheu ke komohana mua, nā Indian Plains, nā kānaka mauna aʻoi aku.

Hāʻawi i kahi liʻiliʻi o hoʻokahi hola. He mea nui kēia i kāu huakaʻi!

He nui nā haleʻai i piha i Kerrville, a heʻumikumamālua aʻoi aku paha ke nānā aku i ka nani o ka muliwaiʻo Guadalupe, no laila e lawe i kāu koho a hele i ke komohana mai ke kūlanakauhale ma Junction Hwy. Pehea e pili ai i kekahi mauʻataliaʻIlelani'Ākau ma Rivers Edge Tuscan Grille, i hoʻopuniʻia ma nāʻaoʻaoʻekolu me kaʻike wai. E ho'āʻo paha i kahi cookin home i Lakehouse, a iʻole nā meaʻoihana Billy Gene ma BG's Steakhouse, a iʻoleʻo Chile paha, a iʻole wikiwiki paha i Starbucks?
ʻOi aku ma lalo iho he Jazz, Louisiana Kitchen, Guadalupe River Club, aiʻole Caffe Riverstone'ōpiopio, e hōʻike ana i nā meaʻono e like me ka antelope. ʻAʻoleʻoe e hana i kahi kohoʻino. He maikaʻi lākou a pau!
Ma hope o kaʻaina awakea, loaʻa iāʻoe kekahi mau koho. E hoʻomoe i ke komohana i ka Hwy 27 a FM 1340 no kahi kiʻi kūikawā ma kahi wahi i manaʻoʻoleʻia .... nā mea hoihoi o ka pōhaku pōhaku a me ka Easter Easter, i kūkuluʻia ma kahi ākea. Ma ke ala e hoʻi ai, e noho ma ka'āpana mua o Ingram a nānā i nā hale kiʻi a me nā boutiques ... Clint Orms Silversmiths a me Engravers hōʻikeʻike i nā kālena kālā maʻemaʻe ... .ask kekahi o kā lākou mau mea kaulana - e mahaloʻiaʻoe!
Makemake e hele i kaʻaina awakea? E ho'āʻo i ka Pūnaeweleʻo Riverside Nature, me nā alahele alakaʻi pilikino i alakaʻiʻia e hele i lalo i Guadalupe. Nui no ka manu a me ka nānāʻana i nā manu, ua hoʻolaʻaʻia kēia kikowaena i nā kumuwaiwai kūlohelohe o ka Hill Country a me nāʻano 150 mauʻano momona, cacti, a me nā kumu maoli maoli. E hoʻolālā i ka manawa e hele ai i loko o ke kikowaena waena a e kipa i "Martha" ke tarantula a me "Lizzie" ka moʻo, a nānā i ke kahua kūʻai makana maʻamau.
Malia pahaʻoe i loko o nā lima hana lima? E kipa aku i ke keʻena poʻokela o James Avery Craftsman, ma waho o ka 10-i waho o ka 505.ʻO nā hana a'Avery craftsmen i kēia manawa e kūʻaiʻia ana ma nā hale kūʻai kūʻai i kekahi o nā malls kiʻekiʻe aʻe ma ka moku'āina. E kipa i ke kikowaena punahele a e nānā i ka wikiʻi 15-minute e wehewehe ana i ka moʻaukala, a laila e nānā i nā limahana hana i nā mea kupanaha. ʻOiaʻiʻo, aia kahi hale kūʻai kūʻai ... lawe i ka hale i kahi waiwai!
ʻO ka pōkole ka Camp Verde kahi eʻike aiʻoe i ka Hale Hōʻikeʻikeʻo Camp Verde, aia he 10 mau mile ma ke komohana o ke kūlanakauhale kokoke i ke ala o ka Hwy 173 a FM FM 480. I hope i ka makahiki 1854, ua kauoha ke Kekau'ōleloʻo War Jefferson Davis i ka'aha'ōlelo i nā kālā kūpono. no ka hana hoʻokolohua e hoʻohana ai i nā kāmelo no ka holo kaua. E aʻo i ka mea i hanaʻia ma waena o 1856 a me 1865 a he aha nā mea i lilo i nā kāmelo. No kaʻoi aku o 150 mau makahiki, he hale kūʻai nui kēia a me ka post post, no laila e lawe i ka manawa e leka i kahi leka kālepa aʻoluʻolu eʻimi i nā mea likeʻole o nā makana makana, nā makana, nā kāmela, nā kukui a me nā mea hou, a laila e hoʻomaʻamaʻaʻoe iāʻoe iho i ke anu. ka inu aiʻole ka hauʻumu ma mua o kou pukaʻana i waho o ke kūlanakauhale.
He nui aku nā mea'ē aʻe ... ke kālepa, ka tennis, Kerrville-Schreiner Park,ʻo YO Ranch kaulana, e hoʻoholo ana, hoʻokele, waʻa, a holo paha ma ke kahawaiʻo Guadalupe, nā holoholona a me nā manu manu, aʻoi aku. E hana i kēia hub a huli i nā wahi o Hill Hill e like me Fredericksburg, Bandera, Boerne, a me San Antonio.
Eʻike iāʻoe iho no ke kumu o kēia kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe o ka malihini malihini kipa no Kerrville ... he hopena ia o nā kānaka e "nalowale ka naʻau i nā puʻu."
