Burleson TX 1881

Celebrating the 20th annual Burleson founders day on Saturday, October 13th, 2012. 

The city was actually founded on October 10th,1881and incorporated in 1912 and so celebrating the cities Centennial of it's incorporation this year as well.

My Uncle & Aunt moved here from Fort Worth in 1962 and I actually learned safety, handling and shooting of firearms not far from their home since it was nothing but rural country areas around them. I also learned to drive a stick shift in a 1941 Willys Jeep. He had a newer one but felt I couldn't tear the old one up. Never tore it up but did cause a few of the kids to get bounced out when I went over bumps or bar ditches too fast. Hey, gotta hold on better Dudes!

Back then there were only a couple of fast food places and family restaurants. Fats forward to current and the city looks like a who's who of eating spots making me wonder if anyone eats at home anymore?

It has been good to see the city spend time and money in promoting the "Old Town" area, bringing in new places and my favorite, small family owned restaurants. So come on down this Saturday and we can like, hang out!
