Photo of an old country schoolhouse in Nacogdoches county I took as we passed through this weekend. A friend of mine said it was built in 1908 and abandoned in the ‘40s. On Hwy 21 between Nac and Douglass.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

I bet it was a show place in it day. Nothing like that out here, mostly 1 room school houses that today are used as barns, or in some cases community centers.

Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

Love old buildings, but all I see is a place for snakes and wasps to live out their lives.

I knew that building as soon as I saw the picture. Drove by it a couple weeks ago. Always wonder about the story behind it every time I pass by it.

I wouldn't be surprised if my mother went to school there when she was a little girl. She was born in 1911 and lived in that area until she was around 10 when they moved to Appleby.
In the end, it's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years.
