Hell Yeah.....

I just had to borrow this picture from FB, for my blog, so I could have some humor involved as well.

My Eye Doctor

Today, they were enjoying their Chamber luncheon panel!  They are learning information to use in their own business!— with Dr. Michelle Munn, Southern Eye Center, Bobby Gladu, Shenaniganz, and A&A Granite and Limestone.  
Dr. Munn, is presently moving into her new office building and is very involved in our City and local services.

The Heat is Here

Found this picture on FB and borrowed it, to have fun and humor about our heat.  Believe me, it's getting there........... :(

The Calaboose Jail in Royse City is surrounded by blooming trees all around it but it's not out of the woods yet. We are still raising money to repair and restore the Calaboose Jail before it crumbles and we loose this piece of history forever!

Purchase and personalize your brick today and your brick will be placed around the Calaboose Jail once it's fully restored!

I am borrowing this post and putting it out there for all interested parties, who would like to invest in this local historical "jail". 

Feed Store/Silos

The railroad tracks, that have run through this town for years and the building on the left was once a lumber yard.  Then there's the Feed store across from it, with the grain silos for storage, until the train cars get loaded and transported to other towns.
I borrowed this photo from Jack Palmer Photos.

Texas State Fair 1936

What a change of this well known event area.........still it has the large area and the Cotton Bowl still stands............

Back Then

Soldiers parade down Elizabeth Street in Brownsville, circa 1916.  This was something people would stop and watch.  Many looked to see if they knew any of the soldier's that was marching.

Dallas, TX 1947

I was born in 1944 in Dallas, TX, so I wouldn't have been old enough to remember any of this......

Texas History

More to Come

 

This is just some of the new growth our fair city is going to experience in the coming months.  As we speak, there's a "Panda Express", being built between "Dairy Queen" and "Whataburger".
