I’ve always been fascinated with this man. Recently discovered that his sister flows down the maternal side of my family many generations back. We celebrate things like the Alamo, but we’re really celebrating the great providence of God in this continent. Michael Medved’s, “The American Miracle”, really explains this well, if you want a good read.

183 years ago today, on February 8, 1836, David Crockett arrived in San Antonio. He was 49 years old. He did not know it but he was less than one month away from dying at the Alamo. David considered this to be the best likeness of himself, a fact he confirms in writing at the bottom.

Got a new door drying! Soon these will be lined up in mass quantity, ready for the taking.

The wood in this door was once the flooring out of one of the last few 1800’s houses remaining of the once bustling town of Auburn, Tx, a ghost town on FM 916 going to Grandview.

There are beds...and then there are ocean sized beds. We just delivered this behemoth. That mesquite headboard is 12’6” and that young man is a little over 6’. Altogether, I’d bet this bed weighs 1200lbs. A king and twin size mattress together. We have one more detail to add to it.
