Texas Trails - a Journey to Groom Texas

Texas Totem Pole



A tractor in the distance.  The wide open spaces.


Town names in Texas are hard to pronounce.
 This town is pronounced Kitty Quay


It is easy to make a wrong turn  in Texas and the roads come to an abrupt end.


We saw many lost dreams on the road.


Perspective



Power of Texas



Turkey a town proud of it music heritage. 




Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys. He was the composer of "San Antonio Rose"
and  other Country
And Western songs and melodies.

JAMES' And ALICE'S MAGNIFICENT HILL

Dan and I took a little ride today to check out James' and Alice's hill.






 This is their house looking from below.  You can see the red roof and an old mine which looks somewhat closer than it really is.



You can see the hill as you drive up to their home.  Their house is just out of the photo on the lower end of the hill.




  

This is another view of the hill as you drive up to their home.







This is the side view of their hill before you get to their long driveway.




This is a front view of their magnificent hill looking straight on.







As we drove down in the valley we saw the rock formations.

From below you can sense the size and scale of this hill.
