[@irishinigami]

@NickJohnson just a suggestion, have you considered getting a camera that records at 4K 60fps? The reason is the smoothing when driving. It's a world a difference. For the future, I would greatly appreciate it if you would consider it an option. I am glad that you even do 4K, but because of the driving while recording, I bet a lot of viewers would be happy with the smoothness of 60 fps. Thanks. Love your videos.

Nick, my grandfather was the President of Dow Well, his ranch was in Canyon Lake, TX. I would spend every weekend from college (91'-96') (TLU Texas Lutheran University, Seguin, TX) at his cattle ranch, on the lake. I miss it so, but "you can't go home again!"

Boerne, Bandera, Fredericksburg, Blanco, Dripping Springs, Johnson City, and Marble Falls are my favorite Hill Country stomping grounds.

After 30 or 40 yrs, he couldn't deal w/ the traffic or inflation or leadership in the Austin area. He said his annual property tax & insurance cost more than he used to pay when he had a full mortgage. Said going to work in Austin just wasn't worth the hassle. Got fed up w/ all the bums & tent cities w/in Austin. Built a new house in a national forest in NM & said peace out.

[@luannecoatsmrfavorismyhero9258]

Went to Fredericksburg about 5 years ago. The whole hill country is beautiful. I was there around Easter and it was already hot there. Didn’t see any vineyards. Seemed like a lot more in Canada near Niagara Falls. Loved Fred-Town, but it was like Nick said, full of store filled with “stuff “ you don’t need. There’s a Texas style in home interiors in so many stores. You can’t miss it. There is every kind of B & B you can imagine, it’s all according to price. The real ranches out in the country are very nice, but I’m sure nobody but millionaires own them. There were a ton of signs warning you about flash flooding at every curve in the road. You should go to this area, just to see this pretty part of Texas.😊

When my kids were of school age we spent Spring Breaks in the Hill Country. Later when two of them moved to Austin we would visit often and do day trips to different places like Johnson City, Fredericksburg, Enchanted Rock...etc. They moved back to Houston so I don't get back much. My wife and I loved Kerrville and thought of it as a possible retirement destination. But that is no longer possible. While the price of home in Houston have a double, tripled prices in the Hill Country have increased 7x. From I have read the average price for a home in Fredericksburg is $750K. That dream which seem doable years ago and it is now gone.

[@jcghim]

[@mikeweaver238]

What people don’t realize about the wineries is that there are very few of them that are old enough to produce grapes. The grapes that most of them use are brought in from old vineyards in west Texas or Napa. Living here and knowing a couple of owners, they bring in people from Europe a couple of times a year to actually make their wines and use imported grapes. Also, a lot of the people who actually work in the stores, restaurants etc don’t live here. Walmart for instance buses people in from San Antonio. A lot of the workers live in Kerrville, Harper and other surrounding communities. They can’t afford to live in Fredericksburg.

[@arlandgaylor]

That’s true. There are a few that do. But I think texas wine is just as good a cali wine, I will say I love Napa valley don’t care for the wine. The French winners are old,,,paid off and the wine is cheaper and taste way better, even though I’m a Texas hill country moto riding dude in my60s now, I’m thinking of leaving my home, way to many people and crime is outta control. Can’t stand the cali and east coast attitudes, and their ugly cali houses they build like over night. Really has messed up my home state.

The Hill Country still has many areas that aren't terribly expensive; though, plenty of developers that put up wineries and expensive houses. One of the funnier ones to me is Florence, Texas complete with a winery and Tuscan style homes for a fake Florence, Italy. Have a place on Stillhouse Hollow Lake in the Salado area and locals are trying to stop the developers from developing on top of the natural springs. The lakes (Canyon, Travis, Buchanan, and Stillhouse Hollow) are all very rocky and clear, but very prone to drought and aquifers are even worse, but the development just keeps coming.

Water is a real issue in the Hill Country. The HC is the bottom of a large escarpment (which stops around the north side of San Antonio and is actually an aquifer recharge zone. The area is fairly dry and will look yellow-brown by August. There's probably a limit to how many folks can really live there. Of note, Boerne has had a Mercedes dealer for 2 decades and was particularly popular with athletes, musicians, and other wealthy folks who wanted a ranch getaway.

[@prokhor_zakharov]

A lot of the vineyards in the hill country got hit hard by the big freeze a few years ago, hence why the vines are so small. Also, lots of the vineyards don't even grow their own grapes on site -- they import them and blend them at the vineyard. It's not Napa, but they're trying...
