I love them, too. There’s a really neat one- a fort, actually, in Gonzales. DH handled an insurance claim there (one of the modern buildings, not the fort itself) a few years back, & I’ve wanted to go back ever since.

I grew up here, so I may be tired of it. I don’t think we’ve grown very gracefully. East Texas is so lush & green. I am wild about SE Houston. Believe it or not (this used to not be true in the 80s & 90s), Houston drivers are a lot saner than San Antonio or Austin. Maybe if we had a Beltway 8? (Okay. This is making me need a road trip. lol Doesn’t take much...)

Gonzales, I did not know that! I have several books about the missions I'll look that one up. There is a mission in ruin in Mexico somewhere between Piedras Negras and Neuvo Laredo. I took pictures but I have no idea where they are. ; )
