Guy, Pleak and Fairchild are all pretty darned small.

We knew the barber in Pleak for years. That barber shop was tiny.

A tiny little town called Dallas. I'm sure you've never heard of it.


Small suburb of Charlotte, isn't it?

Its a shame so many of us have spent time in Hearne TX. It would definitely be the winner

I spent a bunch of overnights at a friend's grandparents house when I was in high school. They lived in Bugscuffle Tx.

My aunt and uncle lived in Tehuacana (Tah-WOCK-uh-nee) for several years. It's in Limestone County near Mexia.

We lived in Rosanky (Bastrop Co) for about 6 years..

Bonnie View

…used to play for dances (keyboards and sax) there in a band that included another Ag - he's no longer with us - in a converted tractor barn. We pulled some great crowds from the surrounding area (Refugio, Woodsboro, Sinton, Taft, Rockport, Gregory, Portland, etc.) …and New Years Eve was a blast! It was just an intersection of county roads with a few buildings and houses but a hell of a lot of fun on Saturday nights (and holidays).

My family owns McQueeney Hall in "downtown Mcqueeney".

I think Marion is bigger than McQueeney, they have a high school. My brothers went there.

I miss the old Hot Shots fish fry that was on lake McQueeney.



Lots of good times at Hot Shots, especially the Friday night fish fries.
did you ever go to Goerkes?

Back when I was in middle school, my folks were looking at lakes to buy a lakehouse or property at.

I remember going to Lake McQueeney as one of our trips.

They bought land at Medina Lake (canyon, now) instead.

Your terms are acceptable. Ridiculous having to drive through that ****hole and you better pray there isn't a train blocking highway 6

While many of you have driven through Tanglewood TX, none of have spent time there. It definitely needs to be added to the list

Used to do a lot of trapping with my FIL in San Maribel.
Don't blink going through Loblolly or you'll miss it.
There's rumored to be ghost lights near Black Bayou but I haven't seen them myself.

Saratoga is known for ghost lights, as well. And for smelling really rank.

Paint Rock, about an hour south of Abilene. Wife has a ranch out there.


You beat me to punch. My mom grew up in a shack with no running water in Paint Rock. It was somehow still standing about 20 years ago when we drove out there to see it.

Just read this article on tiny towns in our monthly issue of Texas Co-Op Power Magazine.

Some towns I've never heard of here.

I've been to oatmeal. Friend of mine is martyring a girl from there and we went to the engagement party.

Is Sonora too big for this list?

Surely someone has put Tuna, Texas on this list?

Hate is how progressives sustain themselves. Without hate, introspection begins to slip into the progressive's consciousness, threatening the progressive with the truth: that their ideas and opinions are illogical, hypocritical, dangerous, and asinine.
This is backed by data.

I know where that is. I went fishing there once when I was a kid. Went with a friend to his family farm.

My ancestors settled near Priddy, some of my cousins are still there.

Some of my ancestors attended the school at Indian Gap. My grandma was salutatorian at Pottsville! (Neither of which have a school these days)

If they were at Indian Gap, almost guaranteed we are either related or they knew each other.
