Wandering the Streets

     In Scott, Cotham's Mercantile, made famous both by its menu items and its famous customers, offers a view of cypress trees standing "knee" deep in water. This used to be a familiar sight throughout the south but is now fairly "uncommon".
    A legend in Keo says that a major trucking company was started using funds that came from the bank vault pictured here. The bank building is now one of the appealing antique and specialty shops that draw visitors to a town that seems to be suspended in time.
    The surrounding pecan plantations and cotton fields remind the visitor of the previous agricultural "hey day" of this area.
