Food Scene

This is my favorite local Mexican restaurant for breakfast and lunch. Very friendly atmosphere, low cost & delicious. My all time favorite menu item is the Caldo de Pollo with corn tortillas on the side. The ladies already have my order memorized. This big bowl of fresh vegetable & chicken soup is always served hot & remains hot til the end. My mouth is watering just thinking of it :)

Parks & Nature

Ancient Cypress trees & picnicking. During the summer, the huge spring fed swimming pool is chlorinated & fenced, during the winter months, the pool goes back to a natural spring pond & the fence is taken down for a scenic view. No need for sunscreen, these 300 year old Cypress trees shade almost the entire pool. During pool season, swimming is free for everyone.
