"Apache"


Long before the white man set foot on the Texas Hill Country the Apache Indians roamed the area. The river Medina that runs through what is now known as Bandera was a great place to live. There were lots of deer and rabbits. The water in the rivers are spring fed making a great place to keep clean, and in the hot summer the kids loved keeping cool in the clear water.

Next time we are sitting around the camp fire we'll have to tell some of their stories.
This is a picture of Chief Joseph Standing Bear, and he lives here in Bandera.
