Falls County Courthouse, located in Marlin, TX. Built in 1939 during the New Deal, Art Moderne style. The 27th county courthouse I have visited in Texas.
I stopped at Marlin on my trip from College Station to Waco via Texas State Highway 6. Nothing really to say about Marlin because the city was quite dilapidated from what I could see on Hwy 6 Business Route. Layers of fallen leaves were on the street parking on the back of the courthouse and no one seemed to clean it, maybe because I visited on a Saturday. A water fountain attached to a stone tablet for the honor of the Confederate soldiers was on the side of the courthouse square. It was the first time I saw a drinking fountain for the Confederate, not sure if it was erected by the UDC. The most notable businesses around the courthouse were an Exxon gas station and a CBD & Vape shop. It was not the best place to bring your wife or girlfriend out. I enjoyed the flowers on the courthouse square, and hence this photo.
Looking out from within this character heritage space, which looks to have at one time housed two retail stores.
eine etwas andere Art der Behausung fand sich auf dem Zanggen wieder, der höchsten Erhebung in meinem diesjährigen Ski-Urlaub! :-)
Wikipedia meint:
Der Zanggen (italienisch Pala di Santa) ist ein Berg in den Fleimstaler Alpen. Seine Höhe wird mit 2492 m angegeben, anderen Messungen zufolge aber auch mit 2488 m oder 2493 m.
The folklore of Zeeland is this kind of cap with shiny gold, silver(?) mirrors, in this version they are bike reflectors (i think)
