~ Jefferson ~

As I promised in my last post, I am sharing

a little of our day in the lovely

old town of Jefferson, TX.

After our lunch in Uncertain,

 we spent the rest of the

afternoon browsing through the

many little antique

shops found here in Jefferson.

After a day of shopping, we always seen to

end up at this place,

the Jefferson General Store.

It is as old timey as they come,

complete with a soda

fountain inside where a coke float

or a strawberry malt

can be had on a hot summer day.

The handsome blue pickup is always

 parked in front.

There are benches for resting and

people watching.

 You can get a glimpse of the

 fun stuff inside through the window

 (excuse my reflection....

not too well planned :o)

The town is well taken care of and

many older buildings

have been beautifully restored.

 I just loved the colors

on this building as well as the architecture.

Such pretty art work on this building,

remembering the past when this was

a major port for this part of the south.

We had a lovely afternoon in spite of the

 100 degree heat.

I found a couple of vintage juice glasses and

David found a book so we both came home

with a little treasure to show for our day.

If you ever have the opportunity to visit Jefferson,

it is well worth your time. There are lovely

B and B's in many of the

beautiful old homes in town.

Hope you enjoyed the mini tour..

til next time....
