Comments: My wife and I visited Van Alstyne a couple months back. Keep an eye on stormy weather in the PM. Prices of homes seem to have risen since our last visit. Van Alstyne IMHO has more than enough considerate folks in the shops. Downtown traffic is hectic. For a special time, make a point of visiting Van Alstyne Museum. You won't be disappointed.
