Hudson Oaks

And they're like, James, you were telling us for the last six years about this, and I guess someone should have listened.

Gary in Hudson Oaks, you're on Newstalk 820, 93.3 FM, WBAP.

Gary, you with me? Come on, Gary.

Gary.

I don't want anyone thinking I'm trying to show off or nothing, but those boots have carried me through some tough predicaments.

East of the courthouse, Fort Worth Highway takes you towards jobs and appointments and chain restaurants and joins up with I-20 and Hugs and Oaks.

But between you and me, Hugs and Oaks still kind of feels like Weatherford.

Then there's Highway 51.

It turns into North Main when you hit the city.

There used to be an old suspension bridge there called Hightower, but most folks just called it Tin Top Bridge, but it collapsed in 1982, or most people think that it happened that way.

Nowadays, Tin Top Road is mostly used as the road that gets to Gators if you want beer and live music, and the world-famous Mary's on the Brazos Cafe if you wanted to get some all-you-can-eat catfish.

And then... there's Rick Williamson Memorial Highway, which swings around the whole town in a half circle from I-20 and Hudson Oaks to meet up with I-20 again near Brock.
