The End Of The Line


http://www.star-telegram.com/228/story/1825517.html?storylink=omni_popular

Sad news out of Cresson, Tx. The Pate Museum of Transportation is closing it's doors Christmas Eve. If you've never been there, you still have time to see what remains. It's still well worth the short drive.

 Built by late Ft Worth oilman "Aggie" Pate out of his own pocket, it is an eclectic collection of cars, boats, aircraft and space memorabilia. During it's heyday it featured several military planes, but most have been reclaimed by the USAF after their condition deteriorated.

The museum is open 10-5 Tuesday thru Saturday, 12 - 5 on Sunday.

Yeah, I saw that article in the Startlegram.

Sad to see that museum close - I always enjoyed driving past it, and went in 2 or 3 times with the kids.
