我見 我思 我聞


返母校德州小鎮 -博孟


七十年代初期我們來到德州東部博孟市州立拉馬大學上硏究院碩士班 畢業後就很少回來一直到今天才踏上回校之路


沿著州際十號公路從休斯敦東行一小時車程途經一片無際的大平原看見油田和稻田佈滿各型穀倉穿越大地的鐵路車廂長龍我們知道這是美國能源重地和稻米產地


當我靠近小鎮時若大的小鎮標誌「博孟」出現在眼前當車子慢行下來時斗大的拉馬大學標字十分醒目, 數十年前之大學往事歷歷在目图書舘大樓仍然聳立如初校園遍開的州花依然耀眼奪目


這個小鎮曾經在二次大戰期間設置了集中營監拘德國战犯也曾經為慶祝好萊塢拍攝木蘭影片在小鎮的小學校搭建長城模型慶祝影片之誕生


早在一七五〇年代法國商人就經此到全美各地 到了一八五〇年後美國內戰時也成了主要運送軍人之通路


今午我穿過這寧靜悠閒而富裕的美國小鎮猶如穿過光隂的遂道住在這𥚃的镇民們也許並不太瞭解外界局勢之發展她們仍然以爽朗笑聲迎來到訪的遊客小鎮上真沒有那麼多煩心之事?








Beaumont, Texas We Are Coming Back


In the early 70’s when my wife and I were graduate students at Lamar University in Beaumont, Texas, this was the city where we spent our college life many years ago.


We started our journey from Houston through Interstate 10 and Highway 90. After we passed Dayton, we approached the City of Beaumont.


During World War II a small camp was built for German prisoners of war who were detailed near Beaumont from the larger camp in Huntsville in Walker County, Texas.


In 1999 Disney celebrated the movie release of “Mulan” in Texas. They built a miniature version of the Great Wall of China on the school football field.


When we passed this very peaceful town we saw a beautiful park and school.


People living in Beaumont offer resident a rural feel and most people own their homes. Many retirees live here tend to lean towards peaceful and conservative.
