Bill W & Danon ~ the architecture of historic homes in Texas awsome!
My two favorite historic sites in California are John Muir and Sara Winchesters homes and property. Amazing how many of the plants grown by both are still flourishing. John Muir built an adobe house for his daughter on the property, and in front of the dwelling stands an orange grove planted by Muirs workers, and during the summer visitors are encouraged to pick the oranges and enjoy a snack. Pretty cool place. Sara Winchechester built a plant solarium on the second floor her house. Many of the drainage and elevator type designs original and still used today by growers. In the front yard of the Winchester property stands a beautifully sculptured indian <Sara honored those that were killed by the guns her husband manufactured>
and believed the tragadies in her life were caused from her association with the Winchester rifle.
This year I also turn sixty years and am planning another Western States trip with friends. Hoping to see more of Montana with a stop in Colorado.
Visited Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, Montana ~ so still have a few Western states to visit yet.
Planning on visiting Texas one day, and when we do, we'll give ya all a holler

Please continue telling us more about your home state. Thanks.
