Last weekend we took a driving trip which took us through Grimes County, north of Houston. Pictured above is their courthouse built in 1894. There are 254 counties in the state of Texas and courthouses can be very different in architectural style. I have an Aunt who decided to take a photo of all 254. It took her several years traveling around the state on weekends , usually accomplishing two or three at a time. She finally did succeed and I think she was a little sad that when she finally took number 254!

Janey, when you are in town this weekend, you should come over and take a picture of the Tarrant County courthouse. We think it is the prettiest one in the state!
