Magnolia Marketplace

One of 40 Historical League ladies to enjoy the trip, Jody van Rijn comments, "One of the highlights of our Texas adventure was the visit to Magnolia Market at the Silos in Waco. The collection of buildings we saw were the dream of Chip and Joanna Gains, stars of the HGTV reality show, Fixer Upper, in which they flip, remodel and fix up homes for families in Waco and the surrounding areas.
Watching Fixer Upper and in addition to seeing the process of renovating and designing homes you learn about their family, life on the farm and talented local artisans who help create unique and beautiful items for each home, many of which we saw in Magnolia Market. Chip and Joanna have a wonderful relationship filled with humor so it promises to be a relaxing and enjoyable hour of TV."

Terrific Tour Leaders Lindy Isacksen and Linda Fritsch

Norma Jean Coulter remarked, "All that fun and a learning experience.  And now I am educated in all things Magnolia!  But as always the camaraderie on a well planned trip=a great experience!
Great job in spite of your hair! ☺"
