Nearly 200,000 in Texas of Czech Heritage...

First store...then gas station...
Modern Hruska's

Today Hruska's is a busy place! It seems every car on hwy 71 stops for gas or food or to browse at the ever growing gift shop...filled with everything from Texas doodads to scrapbooking materials. The gift shop is in fact so spread out that people browse themselves right into the large welcoming restrooms (also filled with sale items) It is a bizarre setup and more than once a man has wandered into the ladies room in a confused state!

And I learned?
