Joinerville, TX (Texas Country Reporter)

[@janeforever]

I love these stories. We're retired in CA because we can't afford a house & the property taxes back home in TX. But when we come home to visit family we always try & travel some new (for us) backroads & also watch for the historical markers.

Joinerville is still on the Google Maps. Sadly Barbara passed on in 2012.

How sad that she passed but I admire her ambition and love for her home town. Hooray for you ma'am.

Big corporations killed these amazing businesses. So sad

That cafe reminds me of Mel’s Place from American Graffiti!

Oh, so that's what a wildcatter is. I've heard that term a time or two...although most have been using the term to describe something else. haha Seems like she was a terrific woman. God bless the old towns.
