- WRITERS -
“Walking into Ollie Booker’s in-home studio was like walking into a different world, and for good reason. She transported me to a place I’ve never been, and captured my imagination with her stories of the Guatemalan women she meets when traveling to Central America each year. The fabrics she works with are simply of a different caliber than the clothing most of us buy at big box retailers, and the quality shows. As for Ollie, she also is cut from a different cloth. She is friendly and adventurous, and I’m so glad to have had to opportunity to tell her story.” – Lizz Daniels “Oftentimes the act of calling a tow-truck operator fills me with dread. That’s because usually the only time to call one is when something bad has happened. Either the car has broken down or I’ve gone through an impound situation. (Don’t judge me. But this month, not only was calling tow-truck company owner/operator Chuck Peeples a pleasant experience but actually talking to him was refreshing. Peoples’ apparent lighthearted approach to life and fun-loving attitude helped make writing this month’s ‘Under the Hood’ feature enjoyable.” – Dalondo Moultrie “Over the years, Michael and Amy Geer have gone through an incredible ride of ups and downs, handling stressors that few people on earth have the faith or strength to overcome. It was inspiring to get to meet with both of them and discuss how their family came to be and the details of their everyday life. Hopefully, the article inspires others to live with love in their heart and open arms as the Geer’s do.” – Joe Martin

Wedding & event venue sparks joy STORY BY LIZZ DANIELS PHOTOS COURTESY OF RENEAU FARMS
W
hen fire burns a forest, it leaves a seared scar on the earth, but in time, what was destroyed will return. Homes lost to fire are not so simple. When a house goes up in flames, heirlooms may be destroyed, family photos, literally everything. These priceless treasures cannot regrow from the ashes. Tracie Wright-Reneau knows this all too well. “It was 11 minutes between the time I got up, called the fire department and got out of the house,” she said. “And by the time all that happened, the house was completely engulfed.”
It was a total loss. All Tracie and her husband, Kyle, had left were the clothes on their backs, their infant daughter Reagan, and a spread of family land that they loved — Reneau Farms. So, as anyone in their situation must, they sat down and asked what was next. A rebuild was planned with room to house their growing family along with clients of Kyle’s dove hunting business, and before long the farm evolved into what it is now, a wedding and event destination that is near both Seguin and New Braunfels.

The farm rests on 150 acres of family fire that destroyed the original homestead land that’s been with the Reneau’s for over from the 1800’s. a hundred years.

operations, Jessica Ramirez, who is the first point of contact for potential clients, but Tracy and Kyle still keep their finger on the pulse of the business despite their full time jobs. “I’ve been out to several of the weddings,” Tracy continued. “For the smaller things a lot of times we will come out and help. One of the things we’ve started doing, is we offer weekend packages, so you can come out on Friday and bring friends and family and set up however you want. A lot of venues give you the place for eight hours where you have to come in, set up, and be out by midnight. We are a little more relaxed in that sense.” Whether visiting Reneau Farms for a dove hunting adventure, a corporate event, or the most important day of their lives, those who choose the venue for their needs can expect an efficient, laid back environment that will leave a glowing ember in their hearts along with a memory they won’t soon forget.

Growing a family with the Geers STORY BY JOE MARTIN PHOTOS BY CLAIRE VORDENBAUM
M
ichael and Amy Geer are the proud parents of 13 with a family roster that spans thousands of miles. Amy, who was adopted herself, always knew she would look to it in her future. “I personally am adopted,” she said . “Adoption was a big grateful part of my life and so I had always planned on adopting in my life.” Along with Amy’s past, the Geer’s were inspired by their faith to pursue the path of adoption. “We believe Jesus died on a cross for our sins and that he was resurrected,” Michael said. “He paid a debt of my sin, and that brought me into a relationship with my wife and allowed me to be a child of God. So all he did was adopt me. I wasn’t of his line before, and I wasn’t in his family or even in the Jewish family. I was adopted in. So our adoption is a picture of what Jesus did. We love children, we think all children are a blessing of God, and so we have seven born to us and six that were adopted.” The Geer’s dive into adoption began after bearing four children in quick succession between 2000 and 2005,

Michael said. “We had four cute little people, and then we said ‘We’ve got to get this adoption thing going,’” Amy said. After looking into several agencies spanning multiple countries Michael and Amy honed their search to Ethiopia. “I’d always kept my eyeballs on adoption agencies,” Amy said. “…and so I researched every single type of adoption you could do. I’ve always had my heart drawn to Africa, and most of the country’s had closed in Africa. There were only two open at the time, which were Liberia and Ethiopia.” While observing a list of adoptable children four kept the Geer’s attention. “We were looking for two or three little kids that were the same age as our other kid’s,” Amy said. “This one sibling group popped up, and they were pretty much all older than our biological children, but I kept coming back to them, and they were three boys and a girl who when they stood against the wall and took a picture they made a little slanted slide with their little heads. I just couldn’t get my mind off of them and my heart off of them.”
Due to their age, Michael and Amy decided to sponsor the to get our first four home, but the other two were still in limbo.” kids to ensure their well-being while waiting for a family. HowWhile fighting to get their kids home, the Geer’s experiever, once Amy met the sibling group during a trip to Ethiopia, enced a unique boom to their family roster overnight. things changed for the Geer’s, she said. “During that time, we gave birth to another little girl, and Amy learned that instead of four, the siblings actually consist- she was born the same day they passed court in Ethiopia, so we ed of six with two additional girls. went from four to nine on one day,” Amy said. “This was in July of “There was one older and one younger than the four we knew 2011, and we got the four kids home four months later. Then we about,” Amy said. “So that was shocking, and you think that waited another year for the two girls to get home. Then we had finding out there’s two more would make you absolutely free of another little girl born to us. We just told God, ‘Whatever you doing this, but for some reason, because there were more, all I give to us is great. You’re in charge.’” did was laugh and say ‘Okay God, that’s so like you.’” After over a year of jumping through hoops, Amy traveled After learning of the additional children Michael and Amy to Ethiopia, while pregnant with their last child to get her two immediately began the adoption process. daughters and complete the family at a whopping 13. “We were going to become a family of four to eight, which “I flew there pregnant with our last child – a little boy – and was plenty crazy, and then it would be four to 10,” Amy said. “I we went to court together,” Amy said. “So I went and did all that came home, and we had the conversations, and we just believed needed to be done, and I flew back again three months later and God was telling us to do this and that he would provide for it. picked them up and brought them home. Two months after that, So from the beginning of the sponsoring, the whole process of our last baby was born.” getting them home was a seven-year journey.” When looking to educate their family, the Geer’s looked The original four children of the sibling group were able to inwards instead of out. breeze through the adoption process without a hitch. However, “I homeschooled all the children, always have,” Amy said. the additional two were difficult to bring home due to various “We are a homeschooling family.

Although Amy had her work cut out for her over the years, she wasn’t without help from Michael and their daughter. “My little firstborn to daughter was 6 years old when her big sister, who was 11, showed up,” Amy said, “And she became the best teacher in the world. She is a chatterbox, and they shared a room together. So my firstborn bombarded her sister with language. As a result, her older sister is now very language-oriented, and she reads like crazy.” Occasionally, Michael and Amy would encounter cultural differences from their new daughters and sons, but nothing that didn’t bring a smile to their face, Amy said. “In Ethiopia, a lot of them grow up in different kind of houses than we do,” she said. “A lot of them have dirt floors, and things are just different. Well, we all loved to squish on our couch and watch movies, and I would make popcorn. I noticed after our movie nights there were all these little kernels everywhere, and I’m like ‘What is happening.’ I started watching them, and when they were eating the popcorn, if they found a kernel, they would take it and throw it like they were outside because that’s what they do with trash. That was one of the funniest things early on.” A family, the size of the Geer’s, requires a lot of cogs to be moving with the children rotating on different days to perform various tasks.
“
The family becomes a working machine; you have to have chores, you have to participate... “Family dynamics are the hardest thing I think in any family,” Amy said. “…The family becomes a working machine; you have to have chores, you have to participate because that many people is a lot to cook for and it’s a lot of laundry. Having three babies during this process seems like the worst thing you could do, but our big kids that came from Ethiopia just doted on the babies because babies understand any language you talk to them in. So the family dynamics were really good because everybody needed everybody.” Now, both biological and adopted children are branching out into various stages of their lives. However, with some of their children getting older, Michael and Amy miss the kids that have left the roost. “Of the six adopted children, five have graduated from high school, and one is a sophomore now, so she’s still in school,” Amy said. “So we have five kids in college and one working and seven kids at homeschool right now. Our new season of life is that because some of the kids are in college and some of them are working full time, they’re not home all the time. So, now we have a smaller crew of seven, and learning how to live our life in a smaller crew has been somewhat challenging because they’re younger, and we have not as many hands helping with the work than when everyone was here full-on in school and everything.”

Sharing culture through traditional textiles STORY BY LIZZ DANIELS
G
uatemala is a country, rich with history, dating back to the ancient Mayan empire. The heritage of the people that live there grows from deep within the rainforests, branching high up volcanic mountain tops, and is a tale told in the elaborate cotton textiles woven by the indigenous population. The huipil is a traditional garment worn by the women of Mexico and Central America. In essence, it is a loosely fitting tunic constructed of rectangular pieces, which are held together, and decorated, with elaborate stitching, ribbons and beads. Styles differ from region to region, but one thing they all share in common is that the embroidery tells the story of a people and the land on which they live. Ollie Booker was enchanted by the traditional attire of Guatemala more than 20 years ago, and has since turned her love for the country, and its clothing, into her business back home in Seguin. “I used to go to Honduras, and then I branched over to Guatemala and fell in love with the country,” Ollie said. “I started out doing basic learning about the huipils, meeting women over there, making friends and learning the culture.” In interacting with residents, and hearing their stories, Ollie formed connections that are the foundation for her shop, Ollie’s Gifts and Imports. Each year in May, Ollie packs her bags and flies south to journey beyond the typical tourist destinations, deep into the heart of Guatemala where she hand selects huipils, belts and fabric skenes to bring back home. Some of the clothing she brings back will be put on display in her at-home showroom and then sold in her online shop. The fabric, however, will be transformed. Working with her tailors, Ollie, de-
signs and brings to life, an assortment of bold fashion items, which incorporate the Meso-American style. “The material is from a remote region we go to, and it only comes from that area,” she said. “What I’m doing is buying the material and making it into assorted things, which we then design into jackets and dresses.”

When Ollie first started visiting Guatemala, the residents were wary of the foreigner, who spoke only rudimentary Spanish. The country was recovering from a 36 year civil war, wherein, the government committed mass human rights violations along with genocide against the Maya population — the same people Ollie hoped to befriend. “This one village we go to is way up past where we normally stay,” she said. “The women wear this beautiful red material, but they’re very leery of outsiders because during the war they were slaughtered.” Ollie’s affable personality and genuine interest in their lives and culture eventually overcame their distrust, allowing for open trade and collaboration to take root. Each time she returned, Ollie reconnected with locals and began sharing possibilities for projects. Over time, her network grew, and she now describes the women she’s met on her travels as close friends. “Now I get invited to the women’s homes when they see me,” she said. “When I’m shopping they’ll bring out all these huipiles that I can look at. Last year, a woman took me to her private bodega where she got high up on a stack of giant material and threw stuff down to me.” A yearning for adventure, and the urge to seek out the unknown initiated Ollie’s traveling-merchant life, but it was the honesty she sees in the people that drives her annual return. She describes a strong sense of spirituality that exists in the rural areas of Central American, unmarred by the troubles of a modern day life. The people are real, authentic, and exist in much the same way their ancestors did, living off the land, relying on their family and friends to hold each other up. Ollie Booker found an earnestness in something crafted by hand, and seeks to bring that kind of mindfulness to others as they appreciate the pieces offered by Ollie’s Gifts and Imports.

LOVE
The hand-crafted jewelry of Janice McCurry STORY & PHOTOS BY FELICIA FRAZAR
J
anice McCurry has spent a lifetime teaching and guiding students. It’s a passion she continues today, years after she retired. However, when she’s not helping students, she’s designing one-of-a-kind pieces of jewelry, painting angels and authoring books. When she retired from Navarro as a counselor, she took her guidance on the road with former co-worker Jeff Menking. “We did anti-bullying presentations for three years,” she said. “I wrote four anti-bullying books during that time.” McCurry also penned “Grandma’s Wish,” which hosts pictures of her grandchildren for the illustrations. “I look back on here and this was one of the sweetest books that I’ve written,” she said. “I’ve written several since then.” McCurry’s artistic passion led her to create art and a new venture she called, Love Knots.
“I did paint some, but I can’t concentrate long enough to really paint because it is a demanding thing, so I started making jewelry,” she said. “I thought, I can really find my artistic eye and really it was with the jewelry.” Creativity is something that McCurry has always had. Even as a child, she said she would craft and create things. “I was trying to be an entrepreneur when I was younger, trying to make things for people,” she said. Curious about how things work, McCurry said she would take things apart, and put them back together. So, when it came time for her to put that creativity to work, she said there were no classes, it was all self taught. “I’ve never had a class for painting, or writing, or illustrating or jewelry making,” she said. “If I see something, I think I could do it, so I just try until I can do it. I just keep working and working and working. Now, I can Google or YouTube and find out exactly how to do a minuscule type
solder or do whatever I need to do, but the creativity, that’s just one of God’s gift’s and I’m just blessed to have it.” McCurry sits in a small room at the corner of her home where she finds her creativity among the boxes, bags, shelves and drawers filled with tools, colorful stones wires and more. On the workstation in front of her she hosts three necklaces in the works. All three sporting red and black pieces, none of which are alike. “I currently have three necklaces going at once, because this is how my mind works,” she said. “I started out with one and I thought, well I like that, then I saw these crazy pieces of coral, so I switched over to another and started making that one.” The retired educator’s path into jewelry started with her making faith-based pieces. It eventually evolved to include a little bit of everything. “Some of the pieces said believe, some of them said faith, hope and love. This is when I was just starting out,” she said. “I kind of switched over. I think through experience, I learned a little more about what people wanted.” Her work mainly includes earrings and necklaces, but she’s crafted some rings and bracelets. “I do everything from very traditional to Boho Chic to western, Southwestern and whatever comes to my mind to what I think is really, really pretty,” she said. “I love color.”
McCurry sells some of her pieces in a few businesses in Seguin and New Braunfels, and at arts and crafts fairs. She also takes custom orders. “I’ve done some things that are really fun,” she said. “I had someone give me a jacket and I color coordinated the earrings and the jacket.” Angels have a special place in McCurry’s home, yard and heart. When she started painting, they were the main source of her inspiration, however, she found that she wanted to share her angels with more people and begin contemplating how to go about that she said. “It hit me, I’m going to turn those into note cards,” she said pointing to her angel cards. The thought came right after Hurricane Harvey stuck the Texas coast, destroying small coastal towns in it’s path. “The printing company in Seguin was so nice, they helped me turn them into note cards,” she said. “I sold enough through Gift and Gourmet and through my friends to raise $1,500 for Rockport. That was heartfelt thing with these angels.” Since then, McCurry said a portion of the proceeds go to charity. Although she is retired, McCurry continues to help children. “I really missed the kids, so I started career counseling, helping the kids get into college,” she said. “I still do that, that is my passion.”

W
ith a new decade comes new fashion to try out and make your own. So let’s take a look at a few of the top trends for January 2020. Southwestern prints are a Texas staple, and bring a hip flare to any outfit. Find a cardigan piece with a print that suits your personality and pair it with jeans, or a vintage dress for a day look that’s both casual and fun. Switch it up by throwing the print over a little black tunic dress for a flowy silhouette that transitions seamlessly into a stunning night look. Top it off with your favorite Kendra Scott for piece for an added bit of sparkle. Velvet has been back for a minute, but this year designers are taking the material to the next level with textured florals that are great for any occasion. Finish any of these ensembles off with a pair of ankle booties, and you’ll be working the hottest look of the new year.

STORY BY JOE MARTIN PHOTOS COURTESY OF BRANDON MICHAEL
ocally raised musician Brandon Michael has rocked audiences with his smooth-as-butter voice and melodious guitar riffs, bringing a taste of Seguin to the European music scene and beyond. Michael has been making recent waves in the country music world with hits like “Train Wreck” and “Waits For You,” topping the charts overseas. “My first ever radio single ‘Waits For You,’ was released on Sept. 1st of last year,” Michael said. “That was the day it went on Texas radio and national radio. Although, when I first released my songs for all of the platforms, they were released in Europe.
“
I think my song ‘Train Wreck’ had become the number 11 song, and I believe ’Waits For You’ was number 17. At that time, I think I was the number 15 artist in the European country music chart.” The 23-year-old Seguin High School graduate said that his life changed forever when he decided to shelf his baseball mitt to take up the guitar. “My entire life in high school and growing up, I thought baseball was going to be my dream,” Michael said. “When I was about 16, I had been going to dance at performances by the local band Clint Taft and the Buckwild Band, and one day I finally got the nerve to say ‘Hey, can I sing a song with y’all.’ I

started doing that at pretty much every single show until I decided to learn how to play guitar. I taught myself how to play in four days. I was able to sing and play a song all the way through, and although I didn’t sound very good, I was still able to do it.” Michael’s first public show happened by chance when he was just 16 at the Freiheit Country Store in New Braunfels when he filled in for a missing karaoke DJ. “I only knew two songs at the time which were ‘Wagon Wheel’ and ‘Brokenheartsville,’” he said. “There was this teachers’ party going on, and I played these two songs, and they didn’t care. They were there drinking having fun, and eventually, I figured out that ‘Wagon Wheel’ was basically ‘Wear My Ring,’ by Bart Crow, so I started trying to play that. I played those three songs all night, and they were going along with it the entire time and having fun. After the show, I thanked them all for letting me play for them, and that night sparked the love for music that I have.” Since his humble beginnings at the Freiheit County Store, Michael has moved on to perform at venues that range from dozens to upwards of thousands of spectators at a time. “My favorite show would have to be the release party we did at Thirsty Horse Saloon for ‘Waits For you,’” he said. “That wasn’t my biggest

show at the time…but it’s the people that matter, so when you have a really responsive crowd, it’s great. The first year I did the Poteet Strawberry Festival was the first time I ever played in front of a massive crowd. There had to have been around 80,000 people just in the little area that I was performing in. That show was something that sparked a new dream of wanting the sound of a crowd like that again and again.” When writing his singles, Michael tried to keep it simple, creating them from within his beat lavatory. “My first ever radio single was written within two hours of ‘Train Wreck’ — which is going to be my next radio single — and I was sitting in ... on a little hunting bipod stool in the bathroom because the acoustics were great in there. I just started strumming my guitar,” he said. ‘“Train Wreck’ begins with ‘Just sat down, double shot,’ and I was like ‘Okay, that doesn’t sound too bad,’ and then about 45 minutes later, the song was finished. I like to ask myself ‘What is something that a lot of people go through,’ then I try to write a song about it.” Michael said that he was a deep connection with every song he makes. However, it was an interaction he had with a fan that brought
the significance of his music to his eyes. “I was playing this show once at this little bar,” he said. “I was having fun, and I always walk around after a show to shake everyone’s hand, and this man stopped me, and he told me, ‘Hey, I really appreciate you. Thank you for the show.’ And I was like ‘Thank you very much. I appreciate you having me out.’ And he said ‘No, I really appreciate you because I’m here because of you. I’m actually here.’ At first, I didn’t understand what he meant, but he said, ‘I was going to do something, and you played a song, and it made me want to stay.’ So that instance really changed the way I looked at things.” Looking to the future, Michael said that he has plans in the works to release an album along with extending his reach. “The album should be done before the new year,” he said. “I’m thinking to start off the new year I’m going to release it, but the next step of progress is – not that I’m going to stop playing bars – but festivals and opening shows and thing’s like that are going to be our main goal. Aside from that, I plan to meet with a friend of mine who is a manager for a band that we will be looking to be the main support act, which means the show will go on tour. And of course, for me, the end goal would be touring the world and selling out shows.”

Wrecker serves local community and beyond
STORY & PHOTOS BY DALONDO MOULTRIE
C
huck and Donna Peeples have owned and operated Chuck Peeples Towing in Seguin since 2016. Together, the couple goes on runs, picks up stranded vehicles and ones being impounded for various reasons. They do it all together. But, Chuck said, he’s just a lesson or two away from kicking up his feet and enjoying the good life. “She’s my partner in crime,” Chuck said. “She rides with me. She gets out and hooks up, crawls under the cars. She does everything I do.
36 SEGUIN ~ GUADALUPE COUNTY LIVING
“If I could teach her to drive with a car on the back, I wouldn’t have to do anything.” Chuck Peeples Towing has one wrecker they use to make a living. It’s a maroon-colored, 2002 Freightliner rollback. When they decided to use a rollback to start the business, it was the first one they found and could afford, Chuck said. The Freightliner came equipped with a 906-liter Mercedes engine, he said. The whole set up weighs somewhere between 15,000 and 21,000 pounds, so the maximum speed output — or the time it takes to get from 0
mph to 60 mph — is of no concern to them, Chuck said. “I usually do the speed limit but if I’m in a hurry I’ll get it up to about 65 mph,” he said. “It’s a pretty big truck.” The truck has a 21 1/2-foot bed. The rollback bed is operated with hydraulics. In fact, Chuck Peeples said, air pressure is a big part of the vehicle’s operations and features. “It’s hydraulic brakes but also has air for air horns, air rides, all that stuff,” he said, adding that the air ride cushions the seats and more.
“The seats and if you want to change tires on the side of the road, you can hook a hose to a tank and fill a tire or use air tools, anything like that.” Chuck and Donna’s Freightliner has a towing capacity of carrying a maximum weight of 10,000 pounds. Such large amounts of weight would be carried on the base supported by dual wheels on the rear axle. Chuck said the cab sports enough room for seating two people comfortably. But there’s also an additional space for extra-long jobs or to provide a little more storage capacity, he said. “It does have a mini-sleeper in the back that has a little bed in case you need to pull over and take a nap or whatever,” Chuck said. “We don’t do that. We just use that for storing the important stuff we use in the trade so people don’t steal it from the back of the truck.” He said the space is about the size of a twin bed. They don’t sleep in the area but the couple does use the wrecker for jobs beyond the Seguin city limits, Chuck said. They provide wrecker service when called by law enforcement officers to scenes of motor-vehicle collisions and more, he said. The company picks up for the Texas Department of Public Safety, Guadalupe County Sheriff ’s Office, Seguin Police Department, “and the citizens of Guadalupe County. We even do out of county, Comal, Bexar, Wilson, Gonzales, Hays,” Chuck said. During those calls serving the community, they have been summoned to quite a few exciting tows, he said. He recalled one that stands out a bit. It seems a woman was driving the wrong way on State Highway 130. She lost control, exited the roadway and rolled the car several times, Chuck said. The interesting part, was the woman showed up the next day to check out the vehicle he had towed and she “didn’t have a scratch on her,” he said. “She showed up at the place the next day and was perfectly fine, didn’t have a scratch or a hair out of place,” Peeples said. “She rolled this Volkswagen Jetta four times and even through a fence and didn’t have a scratch on her. ... I couldn’t believe it.”
