FM 29 was canceled in 1967 and inundated by the Amistad Reservoir. D: Seems harsh. I guess you can still find it if you go diving... Here's SH 29.

Me, too. Once you get past Liberty Hill heading west, it's not bad at all. Beautiful hill country drive.

My hospice territory used to include pretty much everything from 95 to Burnet Co. Some really pretty drives out that way

Highway 25 runs through Archer City, home of Larry McMurtry and the real life setting for the movie "The Last Picture Show." The Royal Theater is on the left. In the book, the town was called Thalia, and in the movie, Anarene (a ghost town between Archer City and Olney). As an Olney native, I always got a kick out of the refences to Olney in the movie--they didn't have a doctor or hospital in Archer City, so they went to Olney for the doctor visit and for Sonny's hospital stay. Then, when the preacher's kid kidnapped a young girl, the deputy tells the sheriff, "He's taking her to Olney to molest her."

Probably so. My family has ranched in Archer County for a long time. Our place is out by the "Space Station."

Occasionally, I have off season baseball dreams, and usually they're about Opening Day. Last night I had a stress dream. A friend I hadn't seen in a while asked to go to the game with me, which was cool, but then she said we could go for only the last two minutes and I had to decline. No way. I'm going for the whole game! Then A&M had instituted a system where if you had a ticket, you had to register also and registration closed 30 minutes before first pitch. After which, your ticket was forfeit. I had to get back to my dorm room to register, and I wasn't going to get there in time! There were some other aspects too that I can't remember now, but I kept waking up throughout the night.

When my alarm went off this morning, I shot up and said, "THREE WEEKS!" HA! My subconscious is ready!
