Deep In The Heart Of Texas

Eden is about 18.5 miles east-northeast of the geodetic center of Texas. Geodetic measurements use satellites to determine locations, and in 1989 the Texas Society of Professional Surveyors measured the exact distance between all four of Texas' borders to assess the state's geodetic center. So if you're ever in Eden, a granite marker in the town square highlights Eden's location as being the center of Texas. But wait - isn't the geographic center of Texas somewhere else? Yes - yes, it is. So there are two places marked as the center of Texas!When you think of something like the garden of eden, could you ever picture it in the center of Texas?
