Trail of Lights at the Emily Ann theatre in Wimberley

     Last night we went to see Wimberley's Trail of Lights at the Emily Ann Theater.  Their Trail of Lights was quite different than both Marble Falls and Zilker Park.  Forget the thousand dollar displays, this quaint community has put together a fun and memorable trail that winds up a hill to give you a 360 degree view of Wimberley at the end.  Along the way, we stopped at the Yule Log or "campfire" as we call it, to warm up,and roast free hot dogs and marshmallows.  My daughter loved this and proclaimed that we needed to get a tent, go camping and roast things over an open flame.  She has it all planned out!!  Also, Wimberley's Trail of Lights provides musical entertainment.....we had a gentleman with a harmonica playing Christmas tunes.  All of the people we met were very nice.  I never have to think too long to remember why I moved out of a big city!

The first image on the left is of the Christmas Light Tree at the peak of the trail.  Just to the right is one of the Wimberley Twin Sisters.  The Twin Sisters are hills named after two twins born to the first settlers in Wimberley.  The view from the top is magnificent.  If you have time arrive just at sunset to see the view.  Their is none better in Texas.  From the top you can see the Twin Sisters and make out Lone Woman and Lone Man mountain in the distance.  The sunsets are incredible.

 

The next two pictures are of the trail of lights itself.  Again the pictures don't do the beauty here justice.  This trail will become one of our family traditions each year.
