5 Daycations for the Spring

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Texas chapter.

1. Magnolia Market; Waco, Texas

 

 

If you’re an HGTV fan like myself, then you’ve heard of the dynamic duo Chip and Joanna Gaines from “Fixer Upper”. The family owns their own store in Waco, Texas and sells cute home décor and hosts several food trucks in their back lounge area. If you live in Austin, San Antonio, Dallas, or Ft. Worth this place is definitely worth the drive – especially if you’re wanting to spruce up your apartment or dorm for spring! https://magnoliamarket.com/silos/

2. San Antonio Spurs Game

The San Antonio Spurs are known for their sportsmanship and skill and their games are known for being loud and proud! If you live near the San Antonio area you should score some cheap tickets and attend a game. Check out their schedule here! http://www.nba.com/spurs/schedule

3. Enchanted Rock

 

For all the nature junkies out there: check out Enchanted Rock. Actually, go to any national park! There are 13 national parks in Texas and if you don’t live near to the big ones like Big Bend, or enchanted rock, try hiking, backpacking or exploring in the beautiful, historical smaller parks around Texas. To find a park near you click here: http://www.nps.gov/state/tx/index.htm

 

4. Gruene, Texas

Two-stepping. Live music, and cute boutiques? Sign me up! Not only can you go tubing down the river, but you can grab a bite to eat at the Gristmill. After dinner, go boot scoot and boogy at Gruene Hall (you can recreate Ben and Kaitlyn’s date from the Bachelorette!)

5. Barton Creek Greenbelt 

Put on your hiking shoes and get ready to explore! The Barton Creek Greenbelt has picturesque trails and places to cool off at throughout your hike. It’s 7.9 miles of adventure and a perfect place to burn calories AND have fun. http://www.texasoutside.com/bartongreenbelt.htm
