Good subject!. That is the 1885 Blanco County Courthouse located in Blanco TX. It's service as the county seat was short lived however, as the county seat was moved to Johnson City in 1890 - leaving this beautiful structure to fall into disrepair. Fortunately a recent restoration project has returned it to it's present condition.

You got it Jerry.

bmcdonau · 07-15-2012, 08:29 PM

Notice how much that looks like the Concho County courthouse?

extracaffeine · 07-15-2012, 08:32 PM

Yep. That's why I posted it today instead of another picture I had ready.

Check out the Sutton County Courthouse in Sonora and architect Frederick Ernst Ruffini

Franklin County courthouse in Mount Vernon, TX

**Jerry** · 07-18-2012, 09:39 AM

Yep - on a dark & stormy night.
You're up!

I should have caught that one Jerry. I ride past it quite often.
I guess I'm slipping!

San Augustine, Tx

bmcdonau · 07-18-2012, 07:18 PM

Looks like the Edwards county jail.

extracaffeine · 07-18-2012, 07:38 PM

It is a county jail, but not Edwards. Edwards county is a lot closer to this than San Augustine.

bmcdonau · 07-18-2012, 08:28 PM

I'll try Kendell County jail. There are only so many hill country limestone jails on leafy squares.

extracaffeine · 07-18-2012, 08:31 PM

That's it. Kendall County jail in Boerne, TX

bmcdonau · 07-18-2012, 08:58 PM

Sticking with the jail theme.

extracaffeine · 07-19-2012, 05:51 PM

That is the Schleicher County Jail in Eldorado, Texas

bmcdonau · 07-19-2012, 10:14 PM

yes it is
