Gerstacker Bridge linking the United States and Mexico across the Rio Grande. That bridge, closed since 1997, is now best known as the La Linda bridge. But it has another name as well --- the Hallie Stillwell Memorial Bridge -- so called to remember rancher/teacher/justice of the peace Hallie Stillwell, a "Yellow Rose of Texas" who lived almost 100 years and is the subject of a museum at the Stillwell property on FM 2627."
