Bandera is in True West Magazine July 2010 issue!

The July issue of True West Magazine is now out on the stands! They interviewed me and Genie Strickland on "What's it like to live in Bandera, Texas"...and our local businesses have ads (pgs. 55-57) to accompany the article which is on page 54. Grab a copy today and read about "The Cowboy Capital of the World!" Thanks to all my friends who advertised: Running R Guest Ranch, Twin Elm Guest Ranch, Bandera Visitors Center, The Longhorn Saloon, Skyline Ranch RV Park, The Flying L, 11th Street Cowboy Bar, Mulberry's Wine and Cheese Bar, and Texas Country Furniture.

On pages 50 & 51 is a "Short Story of American West" by my talented friend, Celeste Sotola and her hubby, Earl Martin. It offers a refreshing twist to this western mag!

Memorial Day Weekend in Bandera, Texas!

We are totally looking forward to our trunk show with Tyler of Double D Ranch!! He'll be bringing current and fall fashions to Gunslinger! The PRCA Rodeo is both Friday and Saturday at Mansfield Park...and don't forget the parade will promptly start at 11am on Saturday morning. We'll have a cold one waitin' for ya all weekend. Hey...my Dallas BF will be here...so a big welcome to Kenda Sue Elliott who is FINALLY making it down to The Cowboy Capital of the World! Also...a BIG Happy Birthday to my good friend and customer, Debbie Davis. Jim and I have had a ton of fun learning to KAYAK down the Medina River...which is running deep and clear, so bring your kayaks and 'tubes when you visit Bandera this spring and summer.
Hope to see y'all soon!

Beautiful, glorious May!

We are living in a sea of wildflowers here in the Hill Country! Every day it seems there is a new burst of color! I'm dining at The Laurel Tree restaurant in Utopia this weekend. I hear it is surrounded by gorgeous red poppies and I'm hoping they last until I get there.

We just rec'd a new crop of Tasha Pollizi...will try and upload pics this weekend. More Miss Me Jeans are on their way! Five new styles plus some cute tops.

Are we Facebook friends yet? Gunslinger Bandera

Big hugs from Bandera~
