Those of us who have traveled the state appreciate the time, exposure, and excellent
way you go about your task. And, those under 40 will someday be grateful for what
you are doing. - Henry Adrion III
I am not a Texan but I sure spend an awful lot of time driving in your fair
state!! Love learning about what I am looking at and now I am beginning to actually
look FOR and know what it is I AM looking at. - Kathy Price, Ossian, Indiana
Thanks for compiling such a good source of information! I consistently find myself
being directed to Texas Escapes when looking for info on Texas counties. - Kara
R. Dotter, UT Austin
I regularly access Texas Escapes as a resource. You continue to have the best
history/heritage/travel website in Texas, perhaps the world. - Bob Bowman,
Lufkin
As is often the case, I found your site while searching Google
-- this time for information on Study Butte and Terlingua. Your description of
Study Butte, comparing and contrasting it with Terlingua, is *FABULOUS* and right
on the mark. ... Thanks for the laughs, the information and the great photos.
- King Douglas
Your photos have sent me on a real nostalgia trip. - Dwight Young, Preservation

readers say
What a delight! ... A refreshing
breath of fresh air amidst the stale pages of the usual travel web sites. I appreciate
your mission, dedication and the very high quality of the site. Thanks for what
you do. - Sue White, Rockwall, TX
Its good to know that someone
takes the time to keep up with the history of the lesser known areas that are
barely considered towns. Thanks for that. - David Scheffler, Kosciusko, Texas
I'm a displaced Texan, living in CA with the military. I was so happy to see
all the pictures you have of the small West Texas towns that my family originally
hails from. Glad to see you are attempting to keep history alive. You have an
EXCELLENT site! Keep up the good work. - Katherine Mckinley, CA/USA
I love the general style of the entries. The humor is great. I especially
liked the nicknames for Mentone. Keep up the great work. This is the most exciting
thing I've seen for Texas devotees since the Texas Almanac. - J. Barnes, Humble |
