The recent heavy rains have given the Old City Cemetery a wild look.
Although some parts of the campo santo are always neat and trim, in others (like the photos above) you have to look long and hard to spot the headstones hidden among the tall grass and weeds. Are the families of those buried there responsible for cleaning the place, or is it a city function? Anytime soon would be nice.

Since the Brownsville Historic Association has an office and a guy names Fernandez is often seen giving tours and collecting historic data...we should assume that the Historic Association, which gets lots of city funding, should be cutting the grass or having it cut. Looks like the Historic Association dropped the ball. Not hard to get grass cut in this town.
Aquí yacen los restos de la Villa de la Ciudad de las Palmas. Área explorada por Alonzo de Piñeda en el año 1519. Después por Álvaro Núñez Cabeza de Vaca; Año de 1526. Después llegan los gringos y se dicen entre ellos "mesmos" que son "pioneers".
Does the Ciry of Brownsville pay a salary to that clown Fernandez? He thinks that he has an exclusive to Brownsville history. Only Gene knows and no one else! I can't stand his pompous butt!
