<<Don't know the Port Cape >>

It's the old hotel across from the gate on the corner.

<<Later they built a lot of stores on the west side of Cape near the interstate >>

<<In my youth, we used to go pick up pecans every year just west of Ware a little. >>

I can recall 3 left now. One had 9 bald eagles in it once.

<<I remember there was another sleazy honkytonk east of the Purple Crackle a ways. I recall that this place burned down, though perhaps consumer demand produced a reincarnation.>>
