Our Amazing Discovery!

We found a stone slab inscribed, crudely, "FORT GRIFFIN"!
We decided to take it with us, lest it be crushed by heavy road equipment or shoveled into a debris pile and buried in a landfill. We did some research when we got back home and soon contacted someone affiliated with the Fort Griffin historical site in Albany, Texas. More on that later. We continued our drive on Martin Luther King, encountering road construction almost every mile of the way.


 It's good that improvements are being made.
 Lubbock cemetery in the distance...
This is the view from the overpass...

And now we approach Mae Simmons Park, part of the Canyon Lakes...
