Here is an old trough I found while walking around some private property in Leon Valley (city within San Antonio, TX). We have this old abandoned house that burned down about a century ago. They never cleared the house or stables out. I was able to get back to the house and stable before they started to renovate it for preservation. The house, stable and land once belonged to Judge Onion, and is frequently called the Onion House. I have photos of the house and stables itself, but this was the one that I found most interesting. I had almost forgotten how I got the photo considering the trough itself was not next to the stables, it was actually further away from the area. It was almost like the owner, at one time, owned all of the land and wanted to make sure that his horses had plenty of water.
