Yup, you got it -- Texas! This is one of the hand-crafted centerpieces from Friday night's banquet hosted by the Genealogical Society of Kendall County in Boerne, Texas. And by the way, that's pronounced "Bernie," as I learned!
A thousand thank you's to Mary Alice (President extraordinaire), Lucy & L.K. (who good naturedly chauffeured me all over the place, even at extreme hours), Nancy (who, in addition to making these center pieces, presented me a scrapbook of Friday night's dinner -- at 7:30 Saturday morning as I was setting up for that day's talks! yup, she made it overnight!), and everyone else who helped out and attended. It was a great crowd and I had a blast. Hope everyone there did too!
