Crawford TEXAS home of George W BUSH.
Today we went for a drive, and realized we were only a few miles from the "Prairie Chapel Ranch" in Crawford, home of George W Bush. About 1/2 mile before the drive way to the Ranch, the sign's were on the road saying NO STOPPING. NO PARKING. NO STANDING. So the photo below was taken on the move. You can just see the White Ranch in the distance. The Ranch is set in 1583 acres.
The town of Crawford has one gas station, and two gift shops and a population of 705. YES we went into one and had a chat with the lady owner, who was glad to tell us all she knew.
Not sure what the wild flowers growing in the field were, but they were so nice.
After leaving Crawford, we continued on our original destination, Waco. Its quite a small Texas town, and with a notoriety that it doesn't deserve, after all if it wasn't for the "Bungled FBI" raid on The Branch Davidians, which resulted in a massacre. who would have heard of the place. It was our 2nd visit to the town, we were here 3 years ago, and found it quite charming. On our last visit we went to the 'Texas Ranger' Hall of Fame museum. We gave it a miss this time, but did visit some of the quaint shops in the Downtown area of the city.
