Garner Tx - Small town but Big in Texas history!

Man - I hit the jackpot - Garner Store in Garner Tx so small it doesn't even show up on my Navigator - and it's the Cutting Horse Capital of the World - Alice Walton - daughter of Sam Walton lives in this area and her horse - Faturity - just won the Cutting Horse World Championship. Also, Garner used to be the Watermelon Capital of the World but the town burned down about 100 years ago... oh and the Domino game 42 was invented here - I just walked into a small cafe and store and into an important place in Texas history and wait till you hear about the guy I talked to - Jimmy Maddux!
