WEST, BY GODDESS, TEXAS

The Village Bakery, which is for sale in case you'd like to start a new career and move to West. to the left is the Village Dress shop. To the right is the West Furniture Store.

This is the Czech Stop where all the tourists buy their Kolaches. It's actually 2 buildings..to the left is the gift shop/pay for your gas/get your cokes, sandwiches, etc. To the right is the Bakery where you can buy dozens of Kolaches, bread, Butkas, etc. But like I said..it's the tourists that keep it going. And they are open 24/7 and are jam packed all the time.Think they are closed on Xmas..The building to the left is the old Dairy Queen.
This is my town..this is part of a 3 field baseball complex for the kids of West. Built entirely by city money and donations from citizens.


Baseball is king in West, and all the kids have some one to aspire to be like..Scott Posednek..who won the World Series along with the rest of the Chicago White Sox.
This is the entrance of the complex..everything is to the right..three fields, each with their own batting cages. They just built a new concession stands and bathrooms this past year.







this is the second field.




Our volunteer fire dept. Can't see it but there are 5 doors for our trucks. We're in the process of getting another tanker for grass fires.


City Hall, with the gazebo to the left. I have a picture of it some place.








This is the corner directly across from City Hall and always has a field of bluebonnets..Not so much this year.


The world famous Pizza House, home of the Skunk Egg. See the little skunk to the left? You can click on these and they will enlarge.




The Old Czech Smokehouse and Bakery. Where they make the best kolaches i town..the Pizza House is off to the right.



Home of the future Sonic..Old home of the Dairy Queen.





Bold Springs Baptist Church Community Center. Where they make the best hamburgers in the state of Texas.




Community Grocery, where they have the best baaaaaaaacon in the world and only place that carrys the best cracklins..I eat them for snacks, lots of the Czechs grind them up and use them to batter fish and fry them..Man..is it good.


Snokhous's...where you can go for anything that needs to be welded..or built or shod.






Wolf's Sports Bar...Inside is every decal for every team in Texas, high school, college and professional. Also home to several drunks I know and where Inky works part time.




West Food Mart. The second of the 2 grocery stores. This one is bigger and has cheaper prices. But Community Grocery has Patsy Patsy Patsy and she's worth the extra money just for the gossip she provides. Plus we like to talk bullshit about my best friend David O.


Jupe Mills..They and the Czech Stop employ most of the work force for West.


West Public Library.


My home away from home.
