Current work is adding links of each standing calaboose to the Floorplans tab.  This allows the reader to go directly to the map for that particular calaboose or one with a similar floor plan.

Been an exciting few days.  Rhonda Holley went to Oklahoma to visit family.  On the way there she stopped in Van Alystine to look for a wooden calaboose that is depicted on the 1914 Sanborn map.  Since that is the latest map available we wondered if there could still be one since the wooden one was probably not still around.  She found a great one that was built in 1947.

On her way back, she took a different road and found one in Wortham completely unexpected.  Finding new calabooses can be very exciting.  She may post more information about her latest adventure at a later date.
