Flying With Faber: Georgetown, Texas
A City with a Beautiful Past and a Simple Vibrant Present
By Stuart J. Faber
Up until a month ago, I had never heard of Georgetown, Texas. I’ve been to Texas a few times. I’ve explored Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, Galveston, San Antonio, and Austin. Recently, a business obligation brought me to Georgetown. The business trip evolved into a love affair with a city.
Georgetown, a city with a population of approximately 50,000, lies just about due north of Austin. On the northeastern edge of Texas Hill Country, portions of the city are located on a fault line of the Balcones Escarpment, which is characterized by black fertile soils and glistening rivers.
