Old Fort Building, Jim Hogg State Park

An aging building from Fort Hogg, at Jim Hogg State Park, Rusk, Texas.

A memorial to the state's first native born governor, James Stephen Hogg, 1891 - 1895. During his term as state attorney general and governor, Hogg revolutionized state government and private business by strengthening public respect for law enforcement and establishing the Texas Railroad Commission to enforce state anti-trust laws and promote fair business practices.

Made it through my first 31 days of Blipping without a miss. Whew!
