John,
Great job of capturing the details of the workmanship, as well as a nice variety of structures built by the CCC in this park. Our Texas State Parks are one of our greatest resources and a beautiful legacy of those who came before and worked so hard to leave us these excellent structures to enjoy.
God Bless,
Greg
