Just a few 4th of July Ideas

The 4th of July week is always fun around here.  Here are a few things going on in the area.

Aquaboom in Kingsland - Parades on & off the water, music, cook-offs and events all day. And of course........fireworks.

Rockin' River Fireworks in Llano - Fun setting along the Llano River for music, family fun and fireworks.

Marble Falls - A full day of music and more along Lake Marble Falls.

Flat Creek Estates - An event called VinoPalooza HAS to be fun.

Some Fun and Unique Events This Weekend

Another great weekend of summer events around the area this weekend.  As always, way too much happening to get everything listed here, so here are a few of the unique and/or nearby things that we've enjoyed in the past or simply caught our eye.

Marble Falls Adult Soap Box Derby -  We stumbled upon this a few years ago and it has become one of our favorite events of the year.  Fun stuff all weekend.  Check it out if you can.

Burnet Pro Rodeo - Another great, local rodeo experience this weekend.  With a fun outdoor venue, it's a nice way to spend the evening.

Wild West Fest - This is a new one to us, but it looks like a fun way to support a local community library.  Nothing says "Wild West" better than BBQ, Music & BYOB. 

Inks Lake State Park - There is something going on over there every weekend, but this Moonlight Paddle caught our eye.  

LBJ Ranch - Check out Mary Poppins as part of the National Park Service "Movie Under the Stars" program at this historic landmark.  A little bit of a drive from here, but a unique experience.

Republic of Texas Biker Rally - And for another unique experience, you can "head in to town" for the ROT Rally.  Or, you can hang out here and listen to them rumble by as groups of riders take in what The Estates on the River homeowners get to enjoy anytime.  

Summer Is On In The Highland Lakes

Here are a few things going on this weekend if you are looking to take a break from relaxing at The Estates on the River.  It's a fun time of year in the Highland Lakes, with plenty to do just about any time, so this is not meant to be a comprehensive list.

Llano 78th Pro Open Rodeo & Parade - One of the fun events we mark on our calender every year.  Rodeo events Friday and Saturday night.  A parade on the Square Saturday and a dance Saturday night.  The arena is great and fills up, so get there early and take it all in.  

Dion Pride's Tribute to Charley Pride - This Saturday at the Llano Country Opry.  Fun night in Llano.

Inks Lake State Park - From a National Trails Day Hike, Kids Kayak Clinic, Night Sky Party, to a Sunset Jaunt on the Electric Boat and Survival Series demonstration focusing on starting a fire, there is plenty to do at one of the best State Parks in Texas.

Burnet Farmers Market - On the Square in Downtown Burnet.  Stock up!

Summer Concert Series in Burnet - Dysfunkshun Junkshun kicks it off on Saturday.  Find out more about this fun band and free event at The River Cities Daily Tribune

Lot 27 - 3 Acres with Dramatic Views

With a slight slope facing East, Lot 27 offers some dramatic views of the surrounding hills morning, noon and night.  And with 3 acres and a nice tree line to work with, the home building and landscaping opportunities will be fun to work with.  Took quite a few pictures of this one on a gorgeous day.  Definitely worth the stroll through the property if you stop by.
