sign cemetery
 
The back lot at Garrison Brothers Signs contains defunct signs.  It's ironic that a company that has provided lasting gravestone markers since 1916 is now gone and its sign relegated to the junk heap.  Geography question - where is Silver Falls?  The first part of the century, the waterfall here was a mecca for travelers.  Today the rest stop still exists but the falls and spring are part of history - just like the motel sign.  We noticed these signs while determining the location of the Texas historical marker for the legendary Cotton Club at its original site off Southeast Drive.  The marker dedication will take place September 27 in conjunction with the induction of Tommy Hancock's induction into the West Texas Walk of Fame.
