Many changes have developed in Houston, Texas, witnessed and was very interesting to see this city grow.
An exciting event was the opening of the Astrodome. It was mind boggling. Not posistive, though believe Judy Garland was the star performer. Recall that the accoustics were very bad at that time. What also is remembered a boxing match. am forgetting who were staged, Casious Clay? Though do recall. When everyone was settled to watch, IMMEDIATELY the fight was over with a knockout, ha. True. No one was happy about that. In fact, some even demanded return tickets.
The Jones Hall opening was a wonderful event, never to be forgotten. Met a movie star then, who was introduced to. Gene Tierney.
