This is the front of the Old store which was built in 1887. Bob Sutter says our grandparents
most likely did some shopping there.

This is the back of the Old Store.

The store on the left is Hering's store. It was built in 1914 and is still
open as a restaurant on a small scale.

The Catholic Church of the Visitation was completed in 1895 and is still one of the largest wooden churches in the state
of Texas. As you can see, it is a beautiful church and is wonderfully maintained.
