Fort Clark Springs

We have moved our motorhome from Canyon Lake to Brackettville, Texas for a month or so to be closer to Eagle Pass for business reasons. We have moved into Fort Clark Springs RV Park. Fort Clark has a wonderful history daring from 1850 including, housing the all the Buffalo Soldier Regiments and Seminole Negro Scouts.

The fort is similar in design and construction to Victoria Barracks in Sydney

The barracks have now been turned into a motel.

The original Commissary is being refurbished and will one day be the museum for the Fort.

The Springs feed the 3rd largest swimming pool in the USA and is drained and refilled each week taking a million gallons a time. It remains a constant 68F all year round.

It is an amazing opportunity for us to live in such a well maintained historical military site just around the corner from where General's Wainwright and Patton lived. Their houses and more of the history next post.

Cheers Bev and Ross
