Historic Granbury


Each Christmas for the past 25 years Granbury shows off its history in a "Candlelight Parade of Homes." Our friends from the Arlington Bible study came to town to share the evening. From left to right, Julie, me, Linda Simons, Gary Simons, Sharla Martin, Emily Fairbanks, and Dave Martin.


At the original 19th century bar in the Nutt House hotel, volunteers from the community served complimentary drinks.


At the historic homes, other re-enactors told the story of the Victorian and Greek Revival homes that make up the old downtown area.


These ladies were demonstrating how thread and clothing was made in the early days of Granbury.


This beautiful picture of the courthouse at sunset was taken by Linda Simons.
