Sister Nelson giving me my ticket for Dry Lake, Nevada
A stop at the Fort Worth Boarding house & Hotel
The Landscaping was beautiful throughout the village
The church had a nice pump organ, Texas Flag in the background
The great Lone Star flag in the background, you can't have enough Texas flags!
I don't believe the resident actor believed me when I told her I use to carry wood for one of these!
The was the Sullivan House, typical of late 19th century neoclassical revival architecture, the house boasts fluted columns on the porch. This is one of the first houses with indoor plumbing.
Come on and I will give you a refill before you head to Dry Lake

Our happy home in Downtown Dallas Texas, really it was a typical dwelling for a railroad section crew. The railroad companies divided the tracks into sections one every 30 miles.
Here is the Citizens Bank built in Justin, Texas, a small community north of Fort Worth, the Citizen's Bank provided necessary credit for farmers and security for local depositors. Housed in a brick building with classical architectural elements and located on a prominent street corner, the bank was typical of many banks built in North Central Texas around 1900. As usually, a withdrawal!
Here was the first house at Heritage Village the Miller House. This house was constructed by William Brown Miller between 1855 and 1862, not far from his original log home. Its design was an adaptation of the Greek Revival architecture popular at the time, reflected by its symmetrical facade and the original square Doric portico at the front door. The front porch with the ionic columns was added during a 1912 renovation. The fine furniture inside the house indicates the success enjoyed by many pioneer families within 25 years of settling in Dallas County.
The farmstead is composed of a dog-trot house, detached kitchen, cellar house, blacksmith shop, feed shed, animal barn, outhouse, a small family cemetery, a herb garden, a vegetable garden and a crop field.

It looks like it would work in Alamo Nevada as well!
Taking a break from the tour at the main street fountain
Built in 1888, this structure served the community of Renner, Texas (now part of North Dallas) as a school until 1919. The exterior displays elements of Greek Revival architecture typical of schools, meeting houses, and Masonic Lodges constructed across the South in the 19th century. Inside are a foyer, a large restored schoolroom downstairs, and one large schoolroom upstairs.
Another chance to teach school here in Texas
In front of the class in Dallas
