Some more damage from the September wildfire.  A tavern that I never got around to having a beer and some flavor crisp broasted chicken in.

Here is a Google Earth Pro pic showing the tavern before the fire.  Also the barbershop to the left.

...

Mmm, broasted chicken. I don't think I've ever had broasted chicken.

Was the whole neighborhood burned? How did the houses back there behind fare?

Broasted chicken tastes great but the last time I had it was at another place and I was just a kid.  Needless to say I waited too long to have some more of it at that tavern.  That fire was weird because it kind of picked and chose which building to burn.  Most of the houses in the town were spared but I did come across one that was half burned.  The places I took pictures of were pretty much small potatoes when compared to some other structures that got burnt.  There was a big Harley Davidson dealership that got wiped out, plus a bank, an animal hospital, some large mobile home courts that were totally destroyed, plus many other buildings, mostly businesses.  It was a big, fast moving fire and it roared through several towns.  Everything's being cleaned up though, as I speak.

Some more damage from the September wildfire.  A doughnut shop that I never got around to purchasing some doughnuts from.

Some glass window blocks that were melted from the heat.

Most likely.  The place was being cleaned up, so the roof remains were probably picked up first.  I noticed the tavern and barbershop roofs were completely burned away as well.

We don't need no steenkin' roof for Judo! Right @KSM?

@juan I got a mini harvest of my pea eggplant. It got really stressed in the flood when it had blossoms so I wasn’t sure if it would produce. Made a batch of Panang curry. Unfortunately I didn’t take any pictures. The plant looks healthy right now so maybe I will get another crop this summer. Unless we get a hard freeze. Most of Texas is getting snow right now. It’s just raining and cold here. My basil never recovered. About time to start some new seeds. Somehow my cilantro must have seeded itself before the flood. Have several plants waiting to be cut.
Are we having fun yet?

Unless we're Judoing on the roof we do not need no steenkin' roof, no.

@KSM and @Ciardelo Please do not wrestle in the garden, you'll trample the flowers.
There was a little girl,
            Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
            When she was good,
            She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.
