Keep it up. I can drag Bob Smith road into the conversation too. I worked weekends one time helping load rice seed and fertilize in a crop duster that flew out the little airport off Barkaloo Rd and he had trouble one Sunday and had to land on Bob Smith road. I had to drive over real quick and help him push it off the road and into a pasture before the cops got there.

FrustratedEarthMother--the Browns had 4 daughters. Bonita, Myra, Verna and I forget the other one's name. Myra is my age, Bonita 3 years older and Verna was a year younger than me--maybe 2 years younger.

To get to the Double Trouble, coming from the East side of baytown, you'd probably go out to Thompson road, turn right on Jones Road and turn left down a dead end Steele road. Called Almost Heaven Riding stables now.

It wasn't nearly that clean and fancy back in the days of double trouble...

People get killed building bridges...that was a heck of a first job!

Yep, but Significantly safer than my 2nd one.

Welcome @Kiki !!! We moved to north of Tyler 2 1/2 years ago from Livingston. Was raised in Houston from 3rd grade to 12th. Where in the Houston area are you? haha, we moved away from hurricanes to tornadoes! As the old saying goes.....out of the frying pan and into the fire!

Hi there!

I grew up on the sw side of Houston...Sugarland area..
I now live on the se side...Pearland area.
Hurricanes don't bother me much...tornadoes....yikes! yuk.

At least with hurricanes, you have plenty of warning. Tornadoes-not so much. Hurricanes cover the whole area, tornadoes cut a much more narrower trail. But what a trail of destruction! My hurricane preparation always included brownies and wine. LOL When you have a huge oak tree on your house and the ceilings are caved in and raining, have a brownie and some wine-it won't be so bad anymore!
