09-01 A Down Home Birthday - April 2009

Having traveled through the land of my ancestors on the way down from Maine in November, I thought what a fun idea it might be to meet my sister in the little town of Star, where members of our family still have a house. (It would be a much more bucolic setting than the D/FW area, anyway.) So, it was all set up and arrangements were made, and here we go. For those not acquainted with Texas, the little town of Star is in north central Texas, roughly 100 miles southwest of the D/FW area, and around 10 miles or so east of Goldthwaite, in Mills County.

COLORADO RIVER BRIDGE WITH SIGN

Well, it just wouldn't be a Doug Duncan photo gallery without at least <i>one</i> bridge shot, now would it? Okay then, let's do it and get it out of the way. Only one of the many bridges that cross the Colorado River, this one lies just north of San Saba on Highway 16.
