DATELINE: Memory Lane, TX

Monday night I drove over to a neighborhood I used to frequent while living in Dallas (Lower Greenville) and visited some old haunts. It's been awhile, maybe 10-12 years, but I managed to remember where places were.

Ships is a total dive and I found it chock full of the same degenerate alcoholics I remembered. This is also where my miserable ex-wife and I had our first date.


Milos Char Bar is a great place that somehow has survived the re-development in the neighborhood. I had planned on getting myself a fabulous dinner but couldn't resist the Hickory Burger at Milo's. When the burger showed up I unwrapped the wax paper and immediately remember the smell of the hickory sauce. Adale made fun of me that I can't remember anything important but did remember the hickory sauce but she would understand if she had ever tasted one of those burgers.




I bet Carrie wishes the burger picture was scratch'n'sniff.

I bought a bong here. Probably some screens too.

I also stopped at the Winedale Tavern, another dump I used to hang out at. Good times.
