Great Place To Stop Before Back To DFW Area
My wife and I had just driven many hours from southeast Louisiana near Mississippi state line after my father's funeral. We have driven along I-20 many, many times between DFW and southeast LA to visit folks, but had never ventured far off the interstate. This time we thought it was a good time to rest for the night before heading back home. Thankfully, Zach had an opening in one of his cottages for the night of our long drive and one more night. We took those 2 nights and it was just what we needed. We had always wanted to check out Jefferson. We had 2 good nights rest and ate some good food while in Jefferson. My wife also purchased a print from Ron Atwood at his gallery.
