Ive been in kingwood off 59 since 2006. nothing was built before kingwood drive. Randalls was only grocery store and maybe one or two gas stations. Growth is a part of life. I remember being excited for los cucos and texas roadhouse being built. Just reflecting. My how times have changed.

Yeah I revisited my childhood home in south Carolina a few years ago. All the woods I use to play in were all neighborhoods now. Was tough to swallow.

I remember, as a kid there was a part of our back yard in New England that was barren…we had it tilled, and I helped manually remove a bunch of large rocks in wheelbarrows, then we had fertilizer (manure) trucked in that I helped spread, in order to hopefully revitalize growth…we moved away 2 years later…then I went back there 30 years later and had this weird out-of-body feeling as I saw that barren land was now a forest of huge, full grown trees! I was totally confused for a moment, until reflecting that…yeah, actually, that's something that can happen after 30 years.

You were just a young whipper-snapper but Mountasia was there until 2007. I took my kids there many times. There is Luby's( not my favorite), but it is still there. I have to admit that there were plenty of businesses in that strip, but I have forgotten them.

surprise surprise! I just wish people were happy, staying put in the cities they live in instead of all wishing to flock our way, I wonder what the overcrowding is going to do to our quality of life if it keeps up at this current pace, don't think that isn't something to ponder.

My parents bought their home in Greentree in 1993 when Mills Branch was still a dirt road. Crazy to think there's a big gas station and liquor store back there now.

I was raised about 35 minutes from here, and coming to Humble, back then, was coming to a larger area, with more to do, places to eat, etc. I came to Kingwood for it's grand opening,when I was a child. My dad exercised his hunting dogs where IAH is now; it was just fields, then. It is amazing how Much as changed; I remember when 1960 was mostly a dirt road Emoticon
