HELLO, HELLO, HELLO, HELLO
HAVE A GREAT PINK SATURDAY AND ENJOY EACH DAY TO THE FULLEST.
TODAY IS “SHOWCASE CALVERT 2009”
CALVERT HAS A RICH HISTORY…IT WAS FOUNDED IN 1860 AND AFTER”THE WAR OF NORTHERN AGGRESSION”, MANY LARGE COTTON PLANTATIONS WERE BUILT THERE WITH AN AMBIENCE OF PROSPERITY AND SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY.
LATER MANY FAMILES MOVED TO THE CITY AND BUILT LARGE BEAUTIFUL VICTORIAN MANSIONS, MANY OF WHICH ARE STILL STANDING TODAY.
THERE WILL BE MANY ACTIVITIES TODAY AND 7 HOMES WILL BE OPEN FOR THE TOUR.
Calvert IS 30 MILES NORTH OF BRYAN/COLLEGE STATION, 90 MILES EAST OF AUSTIN AND 60 MILES SOUTH OF WACO. Texas HIGHWAY 6 IS THEIR MAIN STREET.
IT IS WORTH THE DRIVE TO TOUR THESE BEAUTIFUL HOMES AND SEE OTHERS THAT ARE NOT OPEN TODAY.
SHARON AND I AND OUR HUSBANDS, ARE HEADED THERE THIS MORN AT 8:00, SO THERE WILL BE MANY PICTURES FOR ME TO POST NEXT WEEK.
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND AND GOD WILLING AND I DON’T HAVE TO TAKE IN ANY MORE BABY GOATS, I WILL SEE YOU NEXT WEEK.
