Spring in Seguin, Texas,

Monday, January 31st, 2011

Seguin Texas Bed and Breakfasts make a great base for exploring South Texas and the Texas Hill Country. San Antonio is just thirty five miles away, Austin fifty miles, and New Branfels less than twenty miles from this peaceful historic town.

Don't leave Seguin without pecans.

By the end of February, wildflowers in the Guadelupe Valley will be peaking. Birds such as Scissor-tailed Flycatchers, Green Kingfishers, and Crested Caracaras will be looking for mates. The temperature will be just right – not too hot, not too cold.

Plan a Seguin Texas Bed and Breakfast vacation for early spring, when the community blossoms along with wildflowers. Festivals such as the Noche de Gala, Main Street Trade Days, and the Cajun Jamboree fill the calendar. Enjoy walking tours that highlight the historic limestone architecture of Seguin and feast on locally grown pecans. Wonderful.

Austin Spring Festivals

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010

Austin is a Central Texas town where a lot happens. South by Southwest has come and gone, but that doesn’t mean there are no more festivals on the horizon this spring.

If you like contemporary art and innovative performance art, be spontaneous and book a room at an Austin bed and breakfast during the Fusebox Festival, which runs now through May 2, 2010. In fact, several events take place the first weekend of May: celebrate spring at the May 1 Maypole Festival at Pioneer Farms, and admire art at the Old Pecan Street Festival on Austin’s Sixth Street, May 1 and 2.

If you need more time to plan your stay at an Austin bed and breakfast, you may be interested in the Classical Guitar Festival, June 22 – 27, 2010. Or stay at a Central Texas bed and breakfast outside of town, and check out the Chamber Music Festival of Marble Falls, June 21 – 26, 2010.
