We spent another couple of hours in the museum and then went for a cup of coffee and some peach ice cream. Then we jumped in the car and headed east to Stonewall, TX and the Gold Orchard where they grow lots of different varieties of peaches. We tasted two varieties that are still in season &#8211; an Oh Henry and Flame cross, and a Flame. The cross-bred variety is a freestone type so we chose to buy them although both were really good. They have a kitchen there and were baking pies and other goodies so we took a couple of pieces of pie home for tonight&#8217;s desert. I remembered my camera today so we have some pictures below.<\/p>\n<!-- index.php -->\n<div\n\tclass=\"ngg-galleryoverview ngg-ajax-pagination-none\"\n\tid=\"ngg-gallery-5a0e84a213f80ba72af40fef0928e1c4-1\">\n\n    \t\t<!-- Thumbnails -->\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"ngg-image-0\" class=\"ngg-gallery-thumbnail-box\" >\n\t\t\t\t        <div class=\"ngg-gallery-thumbnail\">\n            <a href=\"http:\/\/minniebiz.com\/gmcmotorhome\/wp-content\/gallery\/fredericksburg-2012\/img_5713.jpg\"\n               title=\"I guess that this is not the prime season to be here at least in an RV.
