All About Kimberly

Sailing Along the Life of Single Parenthood

Around Town

As I’ve mentioned in the previous posts….my town is a small one, but we do have some neat features that today we are going to explore.  Most notably is the history of our town. It is the home of the first university, churches of all denominations, and the first American settlement in Texas. So as you drive around my town, you can take a stop and visit just a few of the over 50 recorded Texas Historical Landmark homes and sites. You can go to this website for some really interesting history behind our town.

If you can stand to stay around (or come back), we’ll have a super festival in honor of The Sassafrass October 24 and 25. Here we’ll have cookoffs, historical reenactments, coloring contests, and tons of other small town friendly fun events (we’ll be having the fall carnival at our school that weekend too)!
