Uncle Jesse...

That area is a part of Houston now. Katy is just down the road to the west. Where all of the old, now shut down, rice driers are located.

As I am not in that part of the 'megaplex' very often, I do not know about it's current status. But I doubt that it is still there. I do not know how long you have been away from the area, but I-10, a two lane-er each way, I bet, when you were here, is now a 6-lane-er each way!! All of the rice/soybean fields around Katy, that used to provide such outstanding waterfowl hunting, are now planted in St. Augustine grass! Westheimer Road (FM1463) probably was still a two-lane blacktopped road west of the Hillcroft intersection when you were here, is now a 6-lane thoroughfare.

Time does change things, and not always for the good, IMHO!

Cheers!

I do, however, remember the sign for it's "...over 2 dozen served".

I forget how long ago it was since I was working for Holiday Inn, I left in '94. That was the outer edge of the metroplex back then. In 2000 I went to work with Starwood Hotels and most of my hotels were near I-610 The last time I was in Houston was Feb. 2009 around the convention center, there were some folks who wanted to give me an award. That happens so infrequently I want to come get it.
