Dudley And Wife Went On A Road Trip To West Texas Saturday ...
We went to Cisco, TX and ate CFS at Linda's Corner Cafe then looked around Cisco, the site of the infamous Santa Clause Bank Robbery. Saw the Mobley Hotel which was purchased by Conrad Hilton and was the start of the Hilton Hotel Empire. Dudley drove his Dodge Ram down a beautiful stretch of the original Bankhead Highway. It was built in the early 20's and was the first all weather road from the east to the west coast. It ran from Washington DC to San Diego CA and was called the Broadway of America. The section in Cisco was paved with red "Thurber" Bricks and is in amazing condition for being almost a Century old! We went to Eastland and saw the the old jail where an angry mob went in by force one night and removed Santa Clause from his cell and took him out behind the Majestic Theater and hung him from a Telegraph Pole. Dudley was dissapointed to see the granite monument marking the spot of the last Mob Lynching in the State of Texas was no longer present. After leaving Eastland we went to Ranger, TX saw the restored Depot and went by and saw the remains of the Lone Star Chicken Inn and Tourist Court. It was an amazing day exploring a historic part of the great State of Texas.

Frank And His Buddy Chase Went On A Road Trip Today ...
to Kerrville, TX. He went by Rhodes Bros Taxidermy and picked up his 7 Pt Buck he got last season near Mountain Home. They ate lunch at Chili's with a view of the Guadalupe River. After lunch they went to Junction, TX and went fly fishing at South Llano River State Park. After fishing they plan to drive around and look for Whitetail and Axis Deer. Looks like a great time in the beautiful Texas Hill Country.

Pictures Of Ralph's Drive In, Palestine, TX ...
back in the early 70's. Dudley and his wife started going there when we moved to Palestine in 1982. Went there many times in my 83 Jeep with the top down. Always ordered a Ralph Burger, Fries and a Frosty Mug of Ice Cold Root Beer. Those were the days!

Frank And Chace Took Their Kayaks ...
out to the the upper end of Lake Worth Sunday morning. They fished for a few hours but got skunked. Frank had a good bite on a plastic worm but was not able to set the hook in time. He said they saw some Ducks but did not see any of the Gators that live in that area of the lake ...
