March 25
Along State Highway 18, where it intersects Farm Road 1219, is a tiny town called Royalty.
Maybe it was hit by a tornado. Or maybe it was hit by bad luck. At any rate, the 2000 census listed the population as 0 and the 2010 census failed to offer an opinion on the matter.

PS – Just like this place, Google Maps locates Royalty, Texas, in the wrong location. In case you wondered.

Nice spaces in this shot, Melinda. Left window with the chair, coupled with the ocher tones of the interior is really nice.
