Ed. note: Thanks to my buddy, retired Professor Rene Torres for this photo. I’ve seen a lot of historical Pharr photos, but I’ve never seen this one. If anyone has any insight about the National Theater, please call The Advance News office at (956) 783-0036. It definitely doesn’t look like the old Texas Theater. The car parked in front looks like a Ford Model T, built between 1908 and 1927, but one of the earlier models, no? Also, who knows anything about the City Meat Market?
Meet 2-year-old Shepherd mix Vince, who is Priyanka's kennel buddy that we talked about last week. When Vince first went into our playgroup sessions, he was rather reserved. He would stay away from everyone and would not socialize like all the others. It took some time for him to become more comfortable during these sessions. He became fast friends with his kennel mate so much that they would play hide and seek in the trees during a session. Vince is very affectionate, friendly when it comes to interactions. He will cuddle up to you so he can get his head scratched. Come on over for a meet and greet with Vince at our Andrews location.
It probably doesn’t help that I’m writing this morose column with the Traveling Wilburys playing “End of the Line” on YouTube as background music to help get my creative juices flowing.
