Caddo Lake 4, final

Went back to Jonesville to check out the T.C. Lindsey & Co store.  It was worth it, half store and half museum.  A lot of old merchandise from long ago that didn't sell in the day and is now on display.  Plus a fair amount of antique tools etc.  The store is the oldest general store in Texas, has been in continuous operation since 1847 and in the Vaughan family for several generations.  We had a great time talking with them, and of course that started with us living in Jonesville.  Very fine friendly folks.  The elder Vaughan woman, I wish I remembered her name, has been to VT and has hiked some Appalachian Trail.

Ate lunch by Caddo Lake in LA, figured out where we are going tomorrow and made reservations at Leroy Percy SP near Hollandale MS.  Yup, we'll be east of the Mississippi tomorrow night.

In the afternoon we went to the Louisiana State Oil & Gas Museum in Oil City LA.  A free admission with another friendly lady to send us on a self guided tour.  It was after 3 and she was closing at 4 so we didn't take a really long time.  Still interesting and we saw everything we wanted to see.

Follow all that with a walk around the campground.  It seems pretty full tonight.  Yes, it's Friday night and should be more full.  Appears to be a father-daughter group here.  Lots of 10-12 year old girls on bicycles riding all around.  And a lot of men, who generally seem to know each other. 

For those who have been asking, I did not buy a truck.  Still looking.

Yup, DDT

Give me a break, I've only been retired 4 years, some instincts are still strong!  These are some real Classics!

Nice comfy dentist's chair.  I like the spittoon.

The shoe section.  I remember that shoe salesman's stool

A Waterfront camp site in the closed section of the park.  They had some flood damage earlier.
