Whenever we traveled to Dallas/Ft Worth my mother always wanted to stop and eat at the Smokestack Restaurant. I haven’t stopped there at all since she passed away.

[@JohnPatterson-kz8jr]

Been there a couple of times. Be sure to stop and eat lunch at the Smokestack Restaraunt.😅😊

The New York Hill Restaurant on the south side of I-20 is good, too.

[@user-kt8yd6we4e]

Went past it today.

I think I was there when I was 5 years old. My parents were traveling west for a school reunion. I had biscuits at the restaurant and went out to the smoke stack by myself. 56years ago. I remember but never knew where. Less trees then.

Good job Andre. I’ve thru there on I-20 in my big rig, but never stopped. Maybe nextime I’m down that way. Thx

[@ExploringwithAndre]

Oh I didn't know you drove a big rig, 1st off, thank you as you guys keep this country moving and 2nd, I bet you see some cool and interesting things while on the road. Thurber is a neat little town, but then again Texas is full of these great hidden gems.

@@ExploringwithAndre I worked in the big mainframe computer rooms, as the System Programmer from 1969-2009. Then Verizon bought MCI and shipped all IT jobs to India. So I ended up driving truck for the last 5 years till I retired. Drove from Alamosa, CO to Waco twice a week with potatoes. Then I went all over the country. Saw lots of things but could rarely stop. No time, and usually no place to park the truck. So I called it quits and stayed home. Had a couple heart operations and that slowed me down alot. I go to the gym but even that is tough. But I have liked your style of videos. Take a break, and do the fun ones. 👍 Have a good weekend with your family. 🇺🇸

@@TimHWolfe oh wow, hope you’re feeling better , my buddy Allen from @soundspeeds drives a big rig now since the movie industry was on hiatus for a while.

[@mistervacation23]

I have been a Thurber several times. I was wanting to get one of those Thurber bricks for a souvenir but I was afraid I might get in trouble

[@HaveKayaksWillTravel]

It's definitely a cool place to stop.

[@ExploringwithAndre]

Yes it is, so many great small towns throughout Texas to visit as you well know.

[@bobsinclair2216]

The US is so interesting with its history. Cheers

[@ExploringwithAndre]

That is so true. Thanks for watching !
