Friday Nite On The Town With Tex




We have not had a “date night” in such a long time! Harry decided we would dress up shine up the old pick-up truck and go into town to the Theatre! Check out Tex’s new boots and jacket! You can tell we’re dressed up because he has a crease in his denims! I’m still waiting for my haircut to grow out!

The Port Lavaca Main Street Theatre opened in the early 1900’s as a movie house but lay dormant for about 30 years till it was purchased in 1983 and then donated to the city in 1993. In early 1994 the restoration was begun and the first play was presented in late September 1994. Since then they have performed at least 5 productions a year including such plays as “The Wizard of Oz” and “ The Odd Couple”. The performance we were lucky enough to see was “ On Golden Pond”! The local actors were really good! You could hear Peter Fonda and Katherine Hepburn in the 2 that played their parts
