    I've heard from numerous people that the first Randall's was at Kirkwood and I-10 which is now Charlottes Saddlery.

    Anyone have any old yearbooks with some nice local ads in the back of the yearbook? It would be great to see some of them!

    How did you get this computerized printout of the various business types? I would love to search a few different places around town with that kind of information!

    Excellent post! I noticed that the phone number has only 6 #'s 781-033 I do remember Houston Jewelry across the street and I would often go there with my mom and she would get so mad because I would run right to the toy section and beg her to buy me Star Wars Action figures. Anyone know who occupied the building before Hooters was there?

    Ok so I remember quite a bit about Woodlake Square but would enjoy hearing from you. Anyone know what the original stores and businesses were? I seem to remember a bar called Woodlake Pub and possibly Bayou Mama's??

    I was curious what the bar scene was like back in the 70's around Houston. Was the ever a place similar to Studio 54 in town? Also where there ever "singles bars"? What were they like and if anyone has any funny or interesting stories I would love to hear them!

    Does anyone know anything about an old restaurant by the name of "120 Portland "? The place is boarded up now but possibly once was neat place to eat. Its located at the corner of Portland St and Milam.

    Address is 10626 Burgoyne..in Walnut Bend..77042. The furthest back I could find was 8/1971 and Butler was the people's last name. I would really like to know how to see an original exterior picture of the house. Thanks for the help!

    How would I find out who all lived in the house I grew up in? It was built in 1960 and we moved in in 1982. HCAD only has records back to 1988. Where should I look for this info? Thanks!!

    Does anybody know about the apartment complex between Old Farm Rd. and Fondren? I have heard stories that it was quite the "swinging" place to be back in the 70's. This place is right behind Vargo's and I heard that it was very wild...anybody know any truth to this?
  23. matty1979
    Does anybody know anything about the old couse that was on the corner of Gessner and Hammerly? Spring Woods HS is there now but dont think the school was built until about 1965
  24. matty1979
    What about pics from the old Sharpstown CC?? Anybody want to comment?

    My Father in law who actually was the Mayor of Tomball during the mid 70's to early 80's has told me stories about Treeline. His favorite is that he was a caddy in Jr High and these big wig oil guys played 18 holes in the freezing cold. They actually drove their station wagon on the course and played. Well my Father in Law would lie face down in the back of the wagon pulling their bags. Apparently these oil guys would take a bottle of Whiskey with them and take a pull of the bottle with every shot they took. Sounds funny I know but back in the 50's these guys could do whatever they wanted. He told me they always tipped well and could never play golf worth a damn but he sure had fun!
