We spent the night in a community RV park in Langtry, TX. Langtry was made famous by the notoriety of Judge Roy Bean, "The Law west of the Pecos". The town now consists of a Post Office, the Museum, a gift shop, a bar or two, some dilapidated buildings of the glory days, and a few residents.
One of the old buildings.
/\ This is the Torres home place. The first permanent settlers of Langtry.
/\ Museum and entrance to the Judge Roy Beam's home.
/\ The Judge's Bar, named after a famous actress of the time "Jersey Lilly". The Judge never
got to meet her. She did visit the town a few months after the Judge died.
/\ Contrary to it's name, this is actually the home of Judge Roy Bean.
