    I can't believe how many pages we have now!! And I keep thinking we have covered EVERY memory there could ever be. But I see that you guys are coming up with more and more!

    Thanks Grantgenerals78 for missing me on here...just haven't had the time to get on and spent an hour tonight just reading and catching up.

    That has been a restaurant for many years. My family went there when I was a little boy. I believe it was El Charrito back then also. I may be wrong.

    It was originally a El Charrito, then changed to El Chico in the mid-70's, then Tulio's in the 80's. Anyone know what is there now?
