Getting Here

The drive to Vintage Oaks Farm in the Hill Country of Texas is spectacular.  Any time is a good time to drive through the mostly rural Texas Hill Country, with its limestone outcroppings and gnarled old live oak trees, but March and April are spectacular. Spring is when the Texas bluebonnet, the state flower, rises under barbed-wire fences, encircles old barns, and stretches out over fields, softening the landscape with a plush bloom-to-bloom carpet that bobbles in the breeze. From May through July, small colorful blooms sprout between cactus needles.
