This past weekend I went on a Texas adventure and drove from SA to a tiny little town called Warrenton. Warrenton is located between Austin and Houston and it took me a little over 2 hours to drive there. Twice a year Warrenton and the surrounding towns host an antique show. Over the past several years I have heard all about it from my friends Evan and Annalee. Their family owns an old farm house and dance hall (called Zapp Hall) and twice a year they rent space on their property to vendors. While Antique Show is going on their family and friends run an outdoor restaurant on the property called Royers Cafe.
I drove over to Warrenton on Friday night, had a blast working in the restaurant serving drinks next to Annalee and friends all day on Saturday, and then wondered around taking pictures on Sunday before I headed home. Although getting to see something I'd heard so much about was worth the trip, the best part of the weekend was spending time with my friends and their family!
Here are the pictures:

Hi Melissa:
I visited Annalee's blog tonight and hopped over here to see your fund and memory filled post about Zapp Hall. I was one of those dealers for many years, and the fun and fellowship of the whole thing STILL makes me 'homesick', every April & October!
Thanks for sharing your wonderful pictures, it sure brought everything back. And did I mention, the very best part of Zapp Hall is the family, every single one of them!!
Thanks again, loved this visit!
Sonja
