You're too far away, Steve. Just a sample of those you left out: Dime Box, Texas Klump, Texas Cut N Shoot, Texas Devine, Texas ...and a lot of people, like Alice, Willis and George West. There was a Kermit, Texas, long before there was a frog by that name. And the flowers would be another topic altogether. Tom Elkins NORTH of TEXAS www.authorsden.com/tomelkins |

Actually, Luckenbach, TX, says it all, if you are tuned in. I have taken dozens of friends and relatives there. Some got it immediately, and wanted to come back. The rest said, "This is it???" It can't be explained. Tom Elkins NORTH of TEXAS www.authorsden.com/tomelkins |
