After the tour the guide told us about a museum in an old Ford Model T dealership building in Crawley and a good place to eat. The restaurant was great. The food delicious. After eating we stopped by the museum which contained several old 1920's and 1930's Fords. The building was designed by an architect of the Ford Motor Company in 1920. Also in the building was original recording equipment and musical instruments used in recording sessions from the J.D. Miller Recording Studio. Many famous people like Paul Simon and Stevie Wonder have recorded at this studio. We spent about an hour there looking at displays and viewing short movies on rice/crawfish production and the recording studio. We all thought it was a worthwhile place to visit.
This is the Joppe Courtyard Cafe. It came highly recommended. The locals waiting in line to place orders recommended the hamburgers so that is what we all had.
The hamburger was huge! It was 1 inch thick. The buns were homemade and soooo good.
This is the Ford Model T Dealership built in 1920 housing the museum.
This is one of several rice mills found along a street named Mill Street.
What an appropriately named street.
I loved the architecture of this building in downtown Crowley.
