Where we stayed

A small ranch cottage outside Fredericksburg. Quiet, walkable to nothing, which was the point.

Where we ate

Breakfast tacos twice, a long patio lunch, and one genuinely excellent dinner we booked a month out.

The itinerary

Friday

Arrive late, unpack slowly, sit outside.

Saturday

Morning market, an afternoon swim, an early dinner.

Sunday

Coffee, one last drive through the back roads, home before nap time.

What I would change

Nothing, except staying one more night.
