Around Mason

Once again on a Sunday afternoon (in 95 degree heat this time!) we headed back to Mason on a route not taken before in search of blue bonnets.  First stop, Fredonia. The store (wish it had been open) is also their post office and, according to the sign in the window, sells pork & chicken tamales on Fridays. P2 shows the entire "block". There appeared to be vacant space in case you're looking to start a business.

Next stop, the Union Band Cemetery. Take note Karol. You may want to organize and start a subsidiary on Vinalhaven.  There were a few bluebonnets. The ones in the photo are in front of the Crocker tombstone.  Bottom left are bluebonnets along side the used clothing collection bins in Mason.

The last shot is of the Red Top Jail in Llano. The sheriff used to live on the first floor, the prisoners were on the second, and the gallows were on the third and fourth floors. The building is no longer used and has been designated one of Texas' "Most Endangered Places". (One can interpret this information all sorts of different ways.)
