Texas Brick

One of the fun things in Texas, and I am sure around the United States, is finding the different brick's with names stamped on them.  Most of the brick was made after 1897 from various brick companies.  We have many different brick's on the ranch, and I always took pictures of the different brick when we found them.  It's kind of fun to see where there from and what brick company made them!
Monday while we were out surveying the land to see where we will build the new home.  I came across these two brick!

Collecting brick's is a fun hobby, a little heavier than most.  But still fun to see what you find.  I have decided I will just collect them via the camera!!!
