World’s Largest Gingerbread Cartman in Smithville

Gingerbread Cartman in Smithville, Texas.

The World’s Largest Gingerbread Cookie

As you can see by his name tag, his real name is Smitty. Smitty helped put Smithville, Texas, in the Guinness World Record Book for the largest gingerbread cookie. I sure wish I’d been there for that. I like cookies. I like big cookies – a lot.

But, wait! There's more...

That dog don’t hunt, and them chickens don’t lay eggs.

Kernut the Blond Posted on September 28, 2015 by KernutSeptember 28, 2015
"I like to escape."

Tales From the RV Park: The chickens that don’t lay eggs… A neighbor with a stick-and-brick (that’s full-time RVer lingo for “house”) went on vacation. He asked me to take care of his chickens and barn kitties. Actually, my neighbor didn’t care so much about the barn kitties (welcome to the south), but he did care about the chickens (again, welcome to the south). The chickens that don’t lay eggs.

But, wait! There's more...

Nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs, and Cibolo in Boerne

Kernut the Blond Posted on September 9, 2015 by KernutSeptember 9, 2015

Hi, remember me? I’m that gal who used to blog here. Yeah, yeah, so I’m flaky when feeling overwhelmed. But I make up for it with my vivacious personality. Heh. Another leap of faith was in my near future, and this time I was afraid to jump. Yes, I gave up … But, wait! There’s more…

More old stuff, now in historic Goliad, Texas

Kernut the Blond Posted on August 8, 2015 by KernutAugust 8, 2015

More old stuff, now in historic Goliad, Texas. The architecture of old mission was mesmerizing. Something about the shape of the Spanish colonial buildings always causes me to gaze at them for a long time.

Hotter than a June bride in a feather bed

Kernut the Blond Posted on July 27, 2015 by KernutJuly 27, 2015
God is cooking Texas. My cousin says southern Utah is for dessert.

I could’ve just said “It’s hot,” but folks get a little tired of hearing the same phrase over and over. The weather is a big topic in Texas. The weather channel is included in the channel lineup as if it were one of the major networks. It will come as … But, wait! There’s more…

I went to see some old stuff

Kernut the Blond Posted on July 19, 2015 by KernutJuly 19, 2015
The "Come and Take It" cannon.

Come and Take It cannon. I don’t often go to see old stuff, unless of course, the weird and wacky roadside attraction I’m visiting happens to have been created a long time ago and is therefore old by default.

Not this time. This attraction’s only claim to roadside attraction fame is age. Okay, okay, some folks prefer the word “historical”. Whatever. It’s old. This particular city is rich in history, as is all of Texas. And it’s all about a cannon.

But, wait! There's more...

Workin’ harder than a funeral home fan in July

The Largest Ball of Barbed Wire.

Largest Ball of Barbed Wire = Close substitute for Largest Ball of Twine. While I’m dreaming and planning, I’ll share a little bit of the massive King Ranch in Kingsville.

Why is it called Tourist Season if we can’t shoot at them?

Kernut the Blond Posted on June 29, 2015 by KernutJuly 7, 2015
Giant Gift Bags roadside attraction - because there is always room for more stuff.

The unique touristy stores were full of great knick-knacks, but the throngs of rude tourists and frustrated store clerks prompted a hasty retreat. Hence my question: Why is is called tourist season if we can’t shoot at them?

Toilet Seat Art Museum. Need I say more?

Kernut the Blond Posted on May 31, 2015 by KernutMay 31, 2015
Barney Smith and his favorite toilet seat.

Well, butter my butt and call me a biscuit! (A southern saying indicating surprise or astonishment. And that, my dear Kernutties, is your lesson for today.) Imagine my surprise and delight when I discovered there was a Toilet Seat Art Museum in San Antonio. I know! Barney Smith, the toilet … But, wait! There’s more…
