    I remember Avalon before City Streets. That was a nice place to meet the young ladies.

    Adventure Bay Water Park. I remember admission was really cheap. We used to go there a couple of times every summer before it closed down. It was small but I had a lot of fun there.

    Yeah, how many pages now and no mention of the Shamrock Hilton?

    That place put Houston on the map when it was first built. It was a shame when they tore it down to build a parking lot.

    It worked out in the end. There is great landscaping and fountains with benches to retreat to from the medical center. Plus they do more important things in the new building than debutante balls.
