  1. Do you remember Johnny's Hamburger House near the 7/11?
  2. In regard to the Hitchin' Post thread below, there was also a Hitchin' Post eatery on Bissonett & Bonhomme for a few years in the late 60's--this later became a hangout called Chubby Chucks..curious if anyone has recall on either of these!
  3. There was also an ARCO station on the corner--I remember Dad giving me 50 cents & I'd walk down there & fill up the gas can for the lawn mower & had money left over for an ICEE next door..hey do you remember the guy that always wore a hard hat that seemed to be at the Handee Mart everytime I came in? Nice guy but can't remember his name. I think I did start that thread a while back--it's pretty cool to see pics whenever someone posts them..for some reason my computer won't load Googlr Rarth
  4. I've got pictures of the old Abercrombie house before they tore it down to make way for the Kroger in 1977--I'll post as soon as I can get my scanner working. We used to ride motorcycles on the bayou bluff right by there--I actually remember when the school bus from Bonham would drop off one of the daughters there in the mid 60's..she was prbly in the 6th grade at the time..they had a cellar that was kind of a creepy hideout long after they moved out..Anyone remember the Handee Food Mart right across the street?
  5. I remember the old general store & barber shop that used to be on Old Westheimer --I'm sure thats gone now!
  6. Anything left structure-wise? Looks like that east-west road covers what could've been the track
  7. I remember this hotel wasnt it on s main near the loop on your way to main st? Thanks for the pic where did you find that

  8. I went to college w/Tom at SHSU back in the late 70's--tragic story and I know he'll be missed!
  9. still one of the most all time recognizible themes ---would make a great ringtone!
  10. it was definitely General Cinema--i can well remember the old "movie reel" opening that they used before each movie started...wonder if youtube has this opening anywhere?
  11. [For awhile there was the Hitchin' Post on Bissonet and Bonhomme
  12. That looks like it was painted with that temper paint we used in elementary school
  13. Sorry--should've said it was the actual truck used in the movie..pretty cool too, they let people climb up in the cab
  14. That's pretty cool--does it include drive-ins or just indoor?
