Sorry to bring up an older subject, but does anyone know anything about this tower I found on Getty Images? Never heard anything about it before: "(Original Caption) A giant gold abstract star tops the tower dominating an entrance to Houston's "Eight Wonder of the Modern World." It's the city's new Astrodome Stadium which will be inaugurated Friday night, April 9th, with an exhibition baseball game between the New York Yankees and the Houston Astros. The $31 million dome-covered stadium has a seating capacity ranging from 45,000 for baseball to 66,000 for conventions. The new home of the Houston Astros, formerly called the Colts, features a $2-million scoreboard providing a half acre of information for fans watching the game played under the translucent, hurricane-proof roof."

Disappointing for two reasons: absolutely loved Sweet Tomatoes and absolutely despise In-N-Out.

I recently discovered there was a Del Taco at 802 N Loop 336 W in Conroe. The location is now a Whataburger.

Ah, The Kettle! One of my favorite breakfast places due to their great breakfast buffet, which often was served late night as well. I know officially the last location is the one in College Station, where I recently got to go to last year. There was one in Conroe at 904 W. Davis but unfortunately it's been torn down and 7-Eleven has been built in it's place. The Galveston location is still in business at 500 Harborside Dr. They've cleverly altered the building decor to go with the new name "America's Kitchen" (Kettle was known as America's Kitchen for quite a few years)
