Changes

McCrary's grandfather sold part of his ranch to C. W. Post in the early 20th century. McCrary still owns part of the original ranch that his grandfather purchased from Clarence Scharbauer (1879-1942) of [[Midland]], Texas. McCrary returned to Post in the late 1940s to run the family ranching operation. He left the community only for vacations and business and art-collecting trips. He has visited more than one hundred countries on all continents, including [[Antarctica]], which he has toured three times with ''[[National Geographic]]'' [[magazine]]. Despite such extensive travels, McCrary said that he would not live in a large city because he preferred the camaraderie of life in a small west Texas town.

  McCrary once said that he believed his town of Post would have become the size of Lubbock had C. W. Post lived to fulfill his dream of creating a self-sustaining community. Post, who was in poor health for much of his life, died just before his sixtieth birthday and was in Texas for only seven years of his life. Post is also the home of the [[Garza County (Texas) Historical Museum|Garza County Historical Museum]], and its Hotel Garza, an 11-room downtown bed and breakfast. There is also the 400-seat Ragtime Gospel Theater, designed to resemble a street in old [[Jerusalem]] and known for its southern [[gospel music]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.postcitytexas.com/|title=Post, Texas: A Few of Our Many Attractions|publisher=postcitytexas.com|accessdate=April 21, 2011}}</ref>
