12/18-26 - Columbus, TX - Colorado River TT Park

What a fun little town!  They have 70 historical markers, with most identifying buildings typical of several periods in their history.

We toured the Courthouse, which had a beautiful Tiffany Style dome in the courthouse (that is Cathy doing the judging).





We also toured the Stafford Opera House, on the second floor of a beautiful building.  The Opera House and the home next door were built by the same man, who made sure he could watch the stage from his bedroom!n

We also took the "Talking Houses Tour", which are 9 buildings that have a radio broadcast you can tune into.

 

 Also on the tour schedule was the "Painted Churches Tour" from Dubina to Praha and back.  This area was settled by Czechs, Austrians, Germans and they painted the insides of their Catholic churches!

We spent Christmas Eve with all the campers at a potluck dinner, which we all enjoyed!
Have I mentioned that it rained ALL WEEK!
