homes for sale: Butterfly Invasion ~ They're not what you think
- 10/18/09 02:47 PM
The past couple of days have brought us an invasion of butterflies all over San Antonio. Although they are smaller than Monarch butterflies, we at first thought they were Monarchs migrating south to Mexico. They have similar coloring to the Monarch. Well, we were wrong. It turns out that these are American Snout Butterflies that are born right here in San Antonio. The sudden population explosion is simply a sign that our drought is now over. During a time of drought they don't breed but after a drought is over they breed on the leaves of the Hackberry trees. It takes about 10 to 15 days to produce the butterflies; first the … (22 comments)

Terrell Hills A little bit of history: Looking back from the vantage point of 2009, I find this story to be quite amusing. In 1919, a group of 6 families and 3 bachelors organized with the goal of emigrating from the City of San Antonio and settling in a "remote rural area." They selected a 24 acre tract that was formerly Terrell Farms (which now lies in the heart of San Antonio.) The southern boundary was Terrell Road, Garraty Road to the north, and western border was Eldon Road. The eastern border was Fort Sam Houston and what is now Harry … (7 comments)

homes for sale: It all depends on your perspective...
- 08/10/09 10:19 AM
Today I was looking through the MLS at residential rental properties. The Agent Remarks in one listing caught my eye: "Older home with large square footage." I checked to see what year it was built and saw that it was built in 1997, which made me laugh. While this isn't a new or even a newer home, I wouldn't call it an older home, either. It's only 12 years old. I remarked to my assistant that the agent must be a young person. How you view things all depends on your perspective. What age home would you classify as an older home?

John the Greek restaurant is one of those places we have been meaning to try for some time now. Tonight, on the spur of the moment, we did so.

We told him the restaurant came highly recommended by our son-in-law. John told us that his family (the Velentzas family) originally came from Greece and opened their first restaurant on Harry Wurzbach near Ft. Sam Houston. Ten years ago they … (11 comments)
