Dear Friend, What a charming little town in the heart of Texas! My most recent trip was in January of 2018 and I really enjoyed exploring the things to do in Waco, Texas. The downtown is walkable and the locals are friendly. Plus, I had a lot of fun at Magnolia. Chip and Joanna got it right! Watch my video, plan your trip and have a blast! Sincerely, Erik |
