In reply to Cynthia R Hutcherson. Hi Cynthia. I can't say for sure. I was certainly driving I-10 in the 1990's, and it was there. I also traveled that route all through the 80's but can't remember stopping there. I think the rest station was always there, but possibly at the time you visited, you were seeing it be remodeled. Hope this helps! What a fun memory. Happy Trails

I am trying to.find out if this welcome center opened in 93 or 94. My dad was a truck driver and on a trip with him, we stopped and it had just opened. There was packed dirt and almost no grass at the time. I know because I was playing in the sprinklers and slipped on packed earth and landed on my rear end. I am just trying to narrow down when we went on that trip. Thank you.

Orange, Texas. My home town. I am the proud owner of a Casita LD. Did you happen to purchase your camper near Houston? I was looking at buying a Tan Casita off of Hwy 59 but someone beat me to it! Have a nice day! {===}_
