Got milk?
Some of the artifacts displayed were cheese and butter molds, glass milk bottles from so many different dairies, and every advertising memorabilia that you can imagine.
Ice cream molds - fancy dinner party, anyone?
I like the concept!
It didn't take long to go through the museum and, on a rainy day in East Texas, it was a pleasant diversion.
While we were in Sulphur Springs, we decided to check out its town square. You know how most southern towns have a "square" in the middle of downtown, usually containing the courthouse, surrounded by shopping? Well, imagine our surprise when we saw the courthouse here.
This little town, approximately the size of Canon City, is the county seat for Hopkins County and has this amazing building built out of Texas red granite. The rest of the downtown is a bit shabby, but the half acre or so that this building sits on is immaculate. Picture our county courthouse and it's a little sad. But, hey, everything is bigger in Texas, right?

Until next time...
