And all this time I thought El Camino Real referred to a highway in California.

Any body got a map of this? Dates used? As an old west history buff, I enjoy this info.

How do you pronounce Natchitoches?

Most of the trail in Texas is named OSR (old Spanish road).

"El Camino Real" means "The Kings Highway" if my Early California history is still seared in my memory correctly. I never knew of the highway in Texas, but as Junipero Serra's "Highway of the Missions" in California.
