[gentle music] It was a really hot night in the middle of summer, July 4th, 1988, in San Angelo, a small town in West Texas.
Catherine TownsendHOST
17-year-old Shane Stewart was gearing up for the Fourth of July holiday celebrations by picking up his girlfriend, 18-year-old Sally McNelly, and they were going to watch the fireworks.
Catherine TownsendHOST
Shane and Sally had started dating in the fall of 1987, when they were both students at San Angelo Central High School.
Catherine TownsendHOST
They fell in love fast.
Catherine TownsendHOST
They even ended up moving in together into an apartment, where both of them worked in fast food to pay the bills.
Catherine TownsendHOST
Sally got a job at a taco place.
Catherine TownsendHOST
Shane worked at a burger joint.
Gerald BriscoHOST
It was dog-eat-dog, as they say.

One of the things that Sarpolis did that was really smart was he knew he had a large Hispanic audience, especially down south of the Panhandle, down in towns like San Angelo and El Paso.
Tony RichardsGUEST
And so he imported Spanish, Latin American talent.
Tony RichardsGUEST
And one of those was the great Gory Guerrero.

Amy LeightonGUEST
I met my soon-to-be husband, and he was in the military.
Amy LeightonGUEST
And so his assignment had taken us from the Washington, D.C. area to a small town in Texas called San Angelo, Texas.
Amy LeightonGUEST
And if any of your viewers know San Angelo, they will know that this is a city that is not along an interstate.
Amy LeightonGUEST
So my closest city was San Antonio, and that was about two and a half, three hours away.
Amy LeightonGUEST
So unfortunately, I could not find a job in compliance.
Amy LeightonGUEST
And so that did not work out.
Amy LeightonGUEST
And then taking into consideration my husband's career in that we had no idea where his next assignment would take us, how long we would be there and, you know, that sort of thing.
Amy LeightonGUEST
And then when we were in San Angelo, we left.

David WalesNARRATOR
Renegade Mexicans, half-breeds, and outlaw Americans who lived in Mexican settlements in New Mexico from whence they traveled in small bands, usually by wagon or ox cart, to the Llano Estacado where they met the Comanches, Kiowas, or other Indians and traded guns, ammunition, whiskey, and other desirable items for the products of the raids.

He traded his trophies to the Comancheros for guns, ammunition, or other less practical adjuncts that might suit his fancy of the moment.

David WalesNARRATOR
But Chadbourne was a near miss because it was not well located and its water supply was not adequate.
David WalesNARRATOR
However, not until the Civil War was over was it finally abandoned in 1867 and a new site chosen for its replacement at the confluence of the North, South, and Middle Concho Rivers.
David WalesNARRATOR
This new position would be called Fort Concho and here eventually would be built the city of San Angelo.
David WalesNARRATOR
As the decade preceding the outbreak of the Civil War was closing, the great wagon trails from San Antonio and East Texas to El Paso must have been a sight to behold.

TxDOT's Texas Bats brochure features seven colony bridges from San Antonio to San Angelo.
Terry SchnellbeltNARRATOR
I have visited three of them, including the Waugh Drive Bridge in downtown Houston.

Unlike most Mexican free-tailed bats in the state, the 250,000 residents of the Waugh Drive Bridge do not migrate to Mexico in the winter, making them part of the largest year-round colony in Texas.
