An Afternoon at Pecan Plantation

On Labor Day we drove to a part of Granbury we've heard a lot about but had never visited. Located on the opposite end of the city is a communicated called Pecan Plantation. It used to be the largest pecan orchard in the world, I think, or may just the US. You can see in this picture a group of deer feeding on the pecans in a empty lot. Pecan Plantation is now it's a large housing addition that boasts a world class golf course, marina, and a private airport.


In fact, the streets near the runway are actually taxi ways.


Houses in that part of the community have airplane hangers in addition to garages. Everyone ziups around in golf carts within the gated community. It was definitely up-scale and a very posh place.
