A little different take on the cattle industry in Texas. #williamsbuildingpalacios #texashistoricalcommission #texasbackroads Omega Productions Texas Historical Commission Texas General Land Office Texas Back RoadsAt 25 years old, Edward C. Lasater entered the Texas cattle industry as a beneficiary of, rather than participant in, the great cattle drives up the Chisholm Trail.

His 1895 land purchase in Falfurrias would grow to 350,000 acres of South Texas land, but his main interest was in dairy cows, not beef cattle.

His sweet cream butter—later named Falfurrias Butter—was popular throughout Texas and even distributed to the East Coast, making him one of the most accomplished cattlemen of his time.

Located along one of the many feeder routes of the Chisholm Trail, the Heritage Museum at Falfurrias tells the story of Lasater and other influential residents from the region.

The museum preserves the frontier history of the county through stories, photos, maps, and artifacts, including more than 100 pairs of boots worn by Texas Rangers throughout the Lone Star State. ... See MoreSee Less

Check this great post and video by my fellow high school buddy and graduate, Tom Perini. He and his wife Lisa, own Perini Ranch Steakhouse in Buffalo Gap, Tx. It’s the best piece of meat you will ever eat. #musicicons #musichistory #omegaliveproductions #texashistoricalcommission #williamsbuildingpalacios Omega Productions Texas Historical Commission Texas Back Roads ...

In this world of today’s divided opinions regarding our country and political thought, this is certainly worth a re-post, although a day late. Have you ever noticed how in each generation there are two kinds of people - those who see the glass half full and those who believe the glass half empty. It’s always easy to find fault and be offended. For Donna and I, being happy is a moment by moment decision. We choose to look for the positive in life and concentrate on the good things. We refuse to let the negative slow us down in making our world better. We don’t ignore the bad, we just refuse to allow our feelings to take us out of the game. I guess it’s just our nature to refuse to be controlled by outside forces. Part of this is our world view. We know we are blessed by our Creator and that He is, in the long run, in control of our lives. The decision to trust that plan is the same decision We make each day to be positive and thankful. Happy Birthday, America. You are pretty special and we are blessed to be Americans. #musicicons #musichistory #omegaliveproductions #happybirthdayamerica #williamsbuildingpalacios Omega Productions ... See MoreSee Less

The W. C. Williams Building, built in 1909, has been a cornerstone and anchor to the commercial and cultural life of Palacios and Matagorda County Texas for 110 years.

In February 2015, the structure was designated as a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark (RTHL) by the Texas Historical Commission.

In July 2016, the RTHL Marker was dedicated by the Matagorda County Historical Commission and the Texas Historical Commission.
