Back in olden times, my High School FFA Chapter was in the same district with Nixon-Smiley (Guadalupe Valley District). At the District FFA meeting there was a talent contest, and some kid from Nixon-Smiley named David Elder got up with a guitar and sang Merle Haggard's "You take me for granted.". Absolutely killed that song. Always wondered what happened to him.

Quite the spreadsheet you got there.

And I was coming home from Corpus Christi. I did run that new big ass bridge on Saturday morning.

I was disappointed when I learned this wasn't a strip club. Every time I used to drive by I'd imagine how bad it must be in there

If you don't like Nixon, Kenedy is just down the road.

I've always liked Nixon. Stockdale FFA hosts a steer and heifer show there every year that we usually go to but I'm from Skidmore and the fact that Nixon has a stop light is impressive to me.

Las Lagunas in Floresville is very similar food. Also Angelica's in Yorktown and Rosie's in Cuero but those are both closed now. All from the same family.

Word on the street is that Rosie's is Cuero may be re-opening early next year though...

Wait, the old one is still there too? Is it open for use?
Ginormus Ag
How long do you want to ignore this user?

No, it is being torn down and is not open for traffic. The new bridge has only been open since this summer. I imagine it will take a while to tear down the old one due to lead paint and environmental concerns, since it is over water and daily use of the shipping channel.

On my path to CStat for games. Suggest traveling on down US 80 to Belmont @ junction of 80 and US 90 for Goss BBQ. Road trip worthy. It is a gas station, but don't let that deter you.

Never in 1,000 years would I have imagined a thread on Texags that involves Skidmore, Nixon, and Belmont that I didn't start.

Belmont's full, BTW.
