"What's Left of Twin Arrows" Originally named Canyon Padre Trading Post when it was built in the late 1940’s off the historic Route 66. It was renamed Twin Arrows in 1957 to pay homage to next stop, 2 Guns. 1 of 2000 famous Valentine Diners is located here, it’s badly damaged, but came ready to use when delivered & was created by Arthur Valentine out of Wichita, Kansas. Twins Arrows was owned by the Troxell Family from 1955 to 1985. When the I-40 was built in the 1970’s the “Best Little Shop on I-40” saw a decline. Twin Arrows closed in 1990 & reopened in 1995 but closed forever shortly after. Now this once popular stop sits in utter decay, slowing returning back into the ground. My UrbEx crew & I have revisited this place numerous times in past 15 years watching its steady decline & documenting its decay. #twinarrows #valentinediner #route66 #getyourkicksonroute66 #instagramaz #instaaz #DPGC_UrbanDecay #filthyfeeds #sfx_urbex #urbexworld #rsa_preciousjunk #UrbEx_supreme #partnersingrime #jj_urbex #trailblazers_rurex #grime_lords #nexus_army #urbanexploration #unitedbygrime #autopsyofAmerica #ProTravelers #way2ill #gameoftones #globe_travel #worldcaptures #unitedbygrime #discarded_butnot_forgotten #unitedstatesofdecay #abandon_af (at Twin Arrows Trading Post) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnCVY78rurm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In 1886 the Board of Missions for Freedmen of the Presbyterian Church in the United States, under the leadership of the group's secretary the Rev. Richard Allen, began planning for the establishment of a black girls' school in Texas. After a statewide survey, they chose Crockett as the school site because of the area's large black population and because of a local black parochial school operated by the Rev. Samuel Fisher Tenny, pastor of the city's First Presbyterian Church. The Rev. Allen's wife Mary, for whom the school was named, was instrumental in raising the organizational funds for the new seminary. Dr. Byrd R. Smith became the school's first black president in 1924 and initiated a period of growth which included the adoption of new programs and the admission of male students. Transferred to the Missionary General Baptist Convention of Texas in 1944, Mary Allen College became a 4-year liberal arts institution. In 1972, plagued by a series of legal and financial setbacks, the school closed. Once the site of a 12-building campus and the home of a noted academic program of quality education and religion, this site serves as a reminder of the proud heritage of Texas' black population. - historical marker #texasinstagram #Texas #igtexas #vanishingtexas #texas_ig #jj_lonestartx #jj_abandoned #rsa_rurex #ipulledoverforthis #renagade_rural #trb_members1 #trailblazers_rurex #rsa_outdoors #tmwanders #backroad_visions #abandoned #abandoned_junkies #grime_lords #ig_countryside #ruralexploration #rural #rsa_rural #abandoned #jj_lonestartx #jj_abandoned #rsa_outdoors #abandonedplaces #abandonedtexas #abandonedphotography (at Crockett, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnlmhEpOVWO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Another preview from my 2 day East Texas road trip. This was taken yesterday just after the monsoon passed by.

Jerry Harry - advisory formed for the purpose of restoring, preserving and passing on to future generations this historical landmark.

ER's Store is an old country store thaat has several names over the years. Now it sits unused and forgotten. From the side it looks like a converted old barn. This area looks like it might been a small community at one time.
