Granbury, again!

Old buildings and car

It’s just too easy to run down the road to a historic town with good food. We gave in to that urge and went back to Granbury, this time in search of German food and to test the Texas History app, again. Associated with this little town are oodles of historic buildings and a nice lake that has attracted lots of new residents, retirees and those still working, to the Granbury area.

Marching through Mansfield

I’ve found a handy app for my phone; well, I think it’s handy, Dave may feel otherwise. The

Texas Historical Markers App

app is called ‘Texas History’; it has an image of a Farm Road sign, and it allows you to hunt for and/or identify historical markers. It links into Google Maps, and is accurate to within about 300 yards; this is why Dave may not be as excited about it as I am. He drives, I give directions, and we try to hone in on where this interesting marker may or may not be; sometimes it takes a while to find the marker. Since we know the Mansfield area well, we decided we’d try out this technology in that area.
