SOUTH TEXAS
South Texas Plains

From San Antonio to Brownsville to McAllen, Laredo and Eagle Pass...
Here's a region with a flavor of its own. Spanish architecture (or a reasonable facsimile thereof) is everywhere, and most yards have miniature botanical gardens -- rooted specimens of cacti, succulents and tropical plants each in their own number 10 can. Snowcone stands are nearly as numerous as gas stations and in some cases they're the same.
Tour Los Caminos Del Rio and see the brick buildings of Henry Portcheller in Roma and Rio Grande City. Watch parrots roost for the night at old Fort Brown or in the Brownsville Cemetery. Meet Kenedys not from Massachusetts and find out why Alice doesn't live there anymore. Everybody doesn't necessarily love Raymondville, and Mercedes wasn't named after Porfirio Diaz' wife, no matter what Donna tells you. So what if it's a long drive. You can spend the night in Kingsville or Floresville on the way down. It's one of our favorite regions and with good reason.
