Café waters plants from AC condensate

Café waters plants from AC condensate

A waterwise practice by the Wimberley Café was observed on the Square last week as air conditioning condensate was captured to water plants at the nearby Marco’s Italian restaurant. Jim Venable of Percheron Construction, with help from Roger Elsey, ran lines from four air conditioning units on top of the Café to a portable 250 gallon tank. From there, a hose from the tank ran across the construction of the Café’s kitchen expansion to plants at Marco’s Italian restaurant. Jay and Jen Bachman, owners of the Café, bought Marco’s Italian business in April. 10/12/2023 12:00 AM

Players deliver big on ‘A Streetcar Named Desire’

Players deliver big on ‘A Streetcar Named Desire’

When the Wimberley Players announced their 2023 season, I applauded their lineup of classic plays that included “The Importance of Being Earnest” by Oscar Wilde and “Sense and Sensibility” by Kate Hamil (from the Jane Austin novel of the same name). But I secretly wondered how they could pull off “A Streetcar Named Desire.” 09/07/2023 12:00 AM

Since opening in November 2021, the shop acquired the handsome patina of a destination, where choosing quality clothing and accessories is part of an unhurried, intentional experience. 08/24/2023 12:00 AM
