I don't know Hughes Springs, but it sounds downright homey. Where is it?
I've got folks all over East Texas, especially along the Route 82 corridor, best I can remember, in Boxelder, DeKalb, Avery, Hooks, New Boston, and Simms, and up into Oklahoma - Idabel, Broken Bow, Broken Arrow - I still remember a Red River Ferry
from back in the fifties. I think it was pwered by a mule on a turnstile... Gee-HAW!
When Huey sent me a message just a few short weeks ago, mentioned the PARTY and invited me to the E-ring, I 'bout flipped when I saw where his place is...
What a tiny-assed world !
