Do you mean that "Bray, OK" is actually on the map?
I've been there, but I had to back up because I blinked and missed it the first time. 
It's a country store sittin' along side of the road.

There are a lot of places like that in the west. When I drove down the Alcan in 2000, my sister rode along for company - and she prayed the whole time, because she was sure we were going to be raped or murdered or worse! I still don't have any idea what she thought 'worse' would be. But when we got to Montana, she went into overdrive on it, said Do NOT get off the freeway, those little towns don't WANT strangers poking around! I hadn't really planned to do any sightseeing anyway, because the RV I was driving was acting up. It finally died at a truck stop, and the mayor of one of those 'unfriendly' little towns stored it for me for several months. Turned out he was also the fire chief, because he had the only key to the old grain storage where there was room for the fire truck. And room for the RV, too. All those little towns she was so terrified of turned out to be places just like that, just a handful of houses with no services for tourists who'd run out of gas or wanted a motel for the night. That particular little place had a total of 5 houses, one of which was vacant, one was where the post office was, and 2 of them belonged to the mayor and his family. I think the 5th one might have been vacant, too. Not even a general store, just a post office - and some nice people. And of all things, the mayor turned out to be a very distant relative of DH!
But my sister still kept hearing the theme from Deliverance running through her mind.

Hi Case.
How's Texas treating you? Let me ask you a something.
How is "Lewisville' pronounce? When I lived in Tx.(70's) I always heard it called "Lewiville"(like KY.) so that's the way I've always said it.
