WHIBSIB Women's Knitting Retreat 2012Buda, TX
Yellow Rose Fiber Festival, Seguin, TX Details below)
No Kids, No Pets - Husbands ok if they do their "thang" while we do ours. Meeting room space is limited to Knitters (women) only as this is a respite from men and kids for most. Cabellas is right up from the Hotel. Onion Creek Country Club Golf a few miles north - check for policy on drop in play. In other words, if you bring your man-toy keep him in your room or busy elsewhere. :-)
