Howdy All,

Went out shooting in Fort Worth Saturday, had a great time, and visited some old haunts that I haven't shot in a long time.

Here's one of my favorite places, one of the Old Mansions on the Trinity River, complete with some tags:cry

    Very nice shot. As to the tag, my mother always said "fools names and fools faces are often seen in public places".:D

    Hi Craig,

    You have another real nice shot with this one. I love the architecture of these old homes but living in them can be something else. Unless they've been reworked, heating and cooling issues are huge and most of the time they have NO CLOSETS to speak of.

    Take care,

    Tom
    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Howdy Tom,

    Thanks!! This one was really a styler, but has fallen on hard times. I can't even imagine the upgkeep on a house like this, and I'm sure hoping that someone buys it and turns it into a neat B&B or a very nice Restaurant.
    Take care,

    Craig -- you picked this one rolleyes1.gif

    I'd take this house in a heartbeat even if it didn't have any closets or really small ones :D

    Does it face east and west or north and south?

    East - West -- lots of sun. Someone who buys it will love that <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029383/emoji/thumb.gif&quot; border="0" alt="" >
