Luckenback, Texas






In Luckenback, Texas, ain’t nobody feel’n no pain. Now that I have Willie and Waylon and the boys running through your head, that’s where some of these pictures were shot. It’s amazing what some people find “quaint”. The town consists of one store, the very old kind with the Post Office in front. (Did you buy your extra two cent stamps? Postage went up to 39 cents on the 1st.) Then the one aisle is crowded with dusty old toys Luckenback memorabilia and armadillos lying on their back drinking whiskey. Dead of course. In the rear of the store is the tavern where hopefuls try to sound like Willie or someone. The tavern at noon held three people from England and one German. The German came to see Fredericksburg, a very large settlement of his ancestors. It’s a tourist town and has one long main street with hundreds of shops and restaurants. A large hospital and nice looking schools and lots of parks. Great place to visit.
