Texas, Carthage - Visiting Ocil and Oma Lee Parsons

















We enjoyed a lovely visit in Carthage, Texas with Joe's Uncle Ocil and his wife Oma Lee today. These terrific folks are 94 years of age and still live independently. Oma Lee prepared lunch of beef stew, canteloupe, banana pudding and coconut cake for us and it was delicious. We enjoyed sharing stories from Ocil and Oma's past and learning more about our ancestors. We look forward to visiting with them again soon.

Here is a picture of their house. It is so unique, sided with petrified rock! We've never seen another house like this. It is very interesting, really neat!
