I was actually there playing Bingo the night they unveiled it. Silly me thought they were making fun of her, wasn't until later I found out they were honoring her.

He told me they had cut it up into 10 acre plots and all that was left was 17 acres. For chits and grins I asked how much they wanted for it and was told $300K !!! Freeked me right out so I called an older couple across the highway from me and told them I was concerned about land being cut up and asked if they ever thought about selling would they give me right of first refusal so I could lock it up.

My only recent experience actually in Sherman was son's football game up there. The demographics seemed pretty poor to me. We were visiting team and outnumbered the Sherman home crowd 3 to 1. A resident told me that the school's don't have much parental involvement or support.

I grew up in Howe and graduated from there in 2001. Lamesa and City Limits were staples in my diet. It was a great place for me. I didn’t go back much after 2005. I’m sure I wouldn’t recognize it. I bet there’s still some really good people there.

It's nothing new. It's been that way all along. What comes next? In about 2039 the economy will crap out and all the businesses will move out of Sherman just like in the early 1980's. Grayson County has always been a "boom town". From WWII onward the next three or four decades all manner of manufacturing moved in and by 1990 it was almost all gone.


Pass the gravy.

You have any interest of leasing those hunting rights to a poor fella to take his girls out deer hunting?

Any of you locals tried the new BBQ joint in Denison? The place that is a butcher/ meat market/ BBQ place off 75 s service road.

I used to catch them on regular basis back in the 80's on top waters, I used to also fish alot behind the damn when they let water out same time period. We would use large pencil poppers with #9 lead in them so we could throw to the Oklahoma side with 15 feet surf rods.

They used to have a fenced off area so that was high as you can go, but it was a blast to hang a big one and walk him down the wall yelling "Fish On"

Once I got into bass fishing around 2000 I went full into Bass Fishing and loved that lake for smallies

Back when I was fishing for stripers we only wanted big ones, the bigger the better.

Now of days the guides take them out and target what they call box fish, they want to catch thier limits and go home.

I used to target large stripers with large lures on the lake on top water on Texoma, and if they would release water we would target the behind the damn on Texoma.

I would also sometime fish behind Whitney damn in the winter and catch trout at the bridge and walk up behind the damn and free spool them on the deep water pools up there.

Al of this was back in late 70's and early 80's.

I have not, my father in law has a BBQ food truck right here in my parking lot so anytime I want good BBQ I just get it from him. His business partner that does the cooking is top notch.

But the bill boards I see on 75 for that business do look really good.

If you are talking about the travel center on exit 72, just go to your local school cafeteria!! Post up a name and I will eat there tomorrow . We need a butcher shop, the one in Durant also does deer processing. I dropped a buck off and picked up the meat that was thrown together from 3 differnt hunters!!! not going back

Red Ranger- You are dead spot on. I have friiends that are guides up here running up to 3 trips a day. Fish late April may and Oct for topwater action. rest of the time it is drop live bait 20-30 and lift the rod straight up!! Cant stand bait fishing like that. Or fish the rocky banks for smallmouths

If going northbound on 75 it would be exit 69 (120 do a U Turn) its on southbound frontage road, called Heritage Butchery & BBQ.

I don't think it's the type of butchery you're looking for though.

We've had good results with Hess Meat Market in Munster, although a little out of the way, but they do a good job. This is also where my father in law gets all his meats for his bbq truck all are top quality. You can definitely taste the difference in bulk (SAMs) brisket vs the Hess briskets.
