La Salle County, Texas

La Salle County is down in South Texas. It’s not exactly a tourist hotspot, but it has its own kind of appeal. Oil and gas are big here. The county seat is Cotulla, named after a Polish immigrant who founded the town.
It’s small, with only about 7,000 people in the whole county. Brush Country surrounds you here. Tough and scrubby, it’s classic South Texas terrain.
The Nueces River runs through the county, providing a bit of green relief. Hunting is popular, especially for white-tailed deer and wild turkey. It’s hot and dry most of the year. But when the bluebonnets bloom in spring, it’s a sight to see.
