Cousin Jared Owens gets his fill of Texas Barbeque after South Texas Ranch tour.


Jared Owens, my cousin Ray Owens' favorite son is shown standing with another cousin, Tom Toman after eating some good old Texas style pork ribs at Mc Bees barbeque in Pleasanton, Texas. Jared traveled from Jacksonville Flordia with his Dad who is on bussiness in San Antonio. Tom Toman went by their hotel and took Jared on a day trip to Floresville to see his Great Grandparents homeplace and the County Jail where his Great Grandfather, Burt Carnes, and later Great Uncle, Don Carnes, both served as county sheriff. I'm thinking his Grandmother, Johnnie Carnes Owens, was probably born in the jail as they lived on the bottom floor of the two story building. After visiting Floresville they came to Atascosa Co. to do ranch things with me. Then later on to Pleasanton for barbeque and more sight seeing with Tom and finally arriving back at the hotel about ten o'clock in the evening.
