Another history lesson for those of us who didn't grow up in, and around, Austin.

The G.I. Bill was the best thing that ever happened to America. It's an example of what the government did right. My late father was a beneficiary of it, attending college and buying our first home.

Had forgotten about the Southern Dinette! Great grub! Used to eat there, 1976-ish.

I've got the Flamingo in my '60s section because it was owned by the Funks of Jade Room.
