For those of you who wanted to go to Brackettville to see the old Alamo set, that property is now closed to the public. I saw an article in our local paper a couple of weeks ago that the family had decided to close the set.

I was reared in Del Rio and spent a good amount of time at Brackettsville at Happy Shahans' Ranch. I spent several days there when they were filming Bandelero as a guest of a couple of the actors (John Prine, Donald "Red" Barry, and the director Andrew McGlaugin). It is sad that it was out of the way so tourism was intermittent and sparse. I hate to hear its closed.
