There was an AYCE seafood buffet in Louisiana that we went to once when I was a kid. Endless boiled shrimp. I don’t remember how old I was but I still think about it.

We went there and Grandma would also take me to The Pig Stand and Bob White's BBQ right by Shotgun Sam's once in a while. Those were around before Shotgun Sam's. Loved all those places.

We would go to Six Flags every year for vacation and would go to Kip's Big Boy. I would get a double decker every meal, my Mom would object at breakfast but my Dad would always say "Aw hell we're on vacation let the boy eat what he wants". The 2nd place was a Barbecue place in Taft Oklahoma. My Dad was a coach at Central St. And we would go recruit around Muskogee and western Arkansas and we would always stop there and get sandwiches. They would be wrapped in white wax paper but all the grease and sauce would turn the paper red.

There used to be a restaurant in Houston off Westheimer called Jeremiah's Greenhouse. My parents would take me there for special occasions.

I remember even as a little kid the bar area was called "The Potting Shed".

McDonalds and their old playground. The hamburgler thing that looks like a water tower, and the steel playground stuff that would burn your skin….and it was always sticky from the soft serve ice creams. Your skin would stick to the stuff and burn. Also liked the sit on spring loaded “rockin things”.

This old stuff would be lawsuit material with these softies raising kids nowadays.

When I was a kid but we lived in a gas plant camp, at Thanksgiving and Christmas and a couple times a year they would have a party of sorts for the people living there. Company would provide the main dish Ham, Turkey, BBQ. Odd numbered houses would bring Vegetable or salad and even numbered houses would bring desert. Good times. banana
