The large yellow/tan large building on the left at 8:33 use to be owned by my great grandparents and they used it as a consignment/antique store and before that was a pharmacy to my knowledge. My great grandmother actually lost her life crossing the street right there and was hit by a ace hardware delivery truck right there after leaving their owed bed and breakfast that was next door to the bank in town across the street basically. fun fact their bed and breakfast had a bedroom with a window that looked right into the banks break-room. They owned a beautiful house right on the strip of land where you can see the bay and have a beautiful grassy park before the bay. Grew up visiting there, a lot and have many found memories of fishing there, going to the local skatepark, and meeting locals of the town my grandparents knew.
Great memories! I wonder if there's any photos or information in the Aransas county history center. Old black-and-white photos or something along those lines. It wouldn't surprise me. Thanks for checking out the video.
The Luther is a comfortable place to stay. Shirley Temple stayed there before. Also the point has great food. Especially the shrimp wraps and egg rolls. Great video
Hi, Dennis! Palacios is my hometown. Thanks for visiting; I go back often, to relax and recharge. My happy place!!! The "bandstand" you referred to is part of the Texas Baptist Encampment. The tree is a crepe myrtle.
Thank you for the information my friend. Very kind of you. Beautiful town. I'm going to do some reading up on it and go back. I want to go into the museum when it is open. I appreciate you checking out the channel.
Good morning Dennis 🤗 The tree with the beautiful blossoms is a Crepe Myrtle. 🙂 unusual to see one with lilac blossoms as they are usually pink, white or red in color.
Palacios looks very clean and like a very peaceful community. Palacios and Indianola have a connecting history with the explorer, de La Salle. Great video. TY
What an awesome little town! I love those Ace Hardware stores in Texas. The one in Rockport blew me away. It’s huge! Haha, of course, it’s in Texas. Have a great day Dennis!
Good morning sir. The one in Rockport is very nice. Great place for fishing supplies or coastal home Decour. Thank you for checking out the video this morning
Good morning Calvin. I love their beach areas and that architecture was pretty cool. It's pretty rare you see those two combined. Hope you guys are having a great day.
Good morning sister. Very nice people. His wife was super friendly as well but she did not want to be on camera. Great sense of humor from the both of them in a wealth of information. Hope you're having yourself a great day
My Dad whom passed in the 80's, had the Montgomey catalog store in that building. He absolutely loved every moment with his friends and acquaintances!. About that 1911? built building. My great grandfather and his brother built a few buildings and homes around to museum was in the building after the catalog store closed. Bet will be interesting to discover. Thanks! Enjoyed your video very much! Thanks again.
Good morning my friend. I was amazed and how cool Palacios was. A little bit of everything. That bandstand was awesome and I like the music venue as well. I appreciate you checking out the video this morning.
Enjoyed the excursion to Palacious, TX and love the different styles of buildings. Awesome beach front area. From what I see Palacious looks to be a very clean town and that says a lot about a place. Nice Hotel for a much needed get a way. Just to let you know had a wonderful lightening show last night and some thunder to go with it. Enjoyed and thanks.
Good morning Dennis. Looks like a beautiful sunny day for you. That's quite a nice little town you stumbled upon. That hotel looks pretty big, I wonder what its size was when it was relocated. That would have been quite a job if it was the size it is now. Don't ever feel bad about staying young at heart, it's not a requirement to act old. Have a wonderful Day!
Good morning Larry. I have been looking at that town on the map for about 15 years. Much closer than I thought it would be. I really like the historic section and I want to read up about the area and go back when that museum is open.. Thanks for checking out the video this morning my friend.
I'm loving this great little town! I may have to move to Texas someday for the architecture lol. I do love those old buildings. And gosh I love that old caboose! Thanks for stopping to check that out! 👍 Looking forward to your return trip. Very cool of Alan to provide great info for you.
Good morning Jamie. It was an awesome little town. I don't think I have seen that kind of architecture right along the water before. I will have to look up and see if the train actually ran through there. Hope you're having a great day
@@dennis78382 that architecture and the shoreline is definitely an unusual combination. Nice find! It'll be interesting to find out whether the railroad was once there too.
Yes it was Jamie. That was the reason for the hotel as the railroad came in new business man came in at the hotel active as temporary housing. I was given a brochure from the Luther hotel and it had an interesting history
I was on your heels. I went through palacios this morning. Is a beautiful little town. I took my dog for a walk behind the community center and talked to a lady that once lived in a town west of my home town.
I talked to quite a few very nice people in that town. I checked with five different people who live there to make sure I was pronouncing the town right. Next time email me ahead of time and I'll just meet you somewhere. I always feel bad when people say they were looking for me but I'm rarely in one spot.
I don't feel bad buddy I just don't like the idea of people wasting their time running around looking for me. I've had people drive 300 miles and I guess they are disappointed that I wasn't at the one spot where I look for dolphins. 😂
Really enjoyed this one. Looks like a wholesome escape from big city life. I'm planning a trip down the Texas coast this summer. I just cant decide how far northeast to start. There is a lot to see and explore along this stretch of Texas. As a woodworker and lover of all things classic...I'll have to check out or stay at that hotel. Thanks for all the great scenery, spots to relax and information. Have a good day Dennis.
I do want to go back into that building Ralph. I'll schedule my next trip for when that museum is open so we can get inside. It's about an hour and 20 minutes away from Rockport so not too bad. Hope you're having yourself a very good day my friend
Thank you my friend. I want to go back with that museum is open but I had to be back in Rockport by a certain time. That entire building looks very interesting. Hope you and the boys are having an awesome day.
Rita Hayworth stayed in the penthouse while she was attending a party at the Original Pavilion on the bay, then you could drive out and turn around. here Spectacular the first pavilion during the 1920"s . Happy Hunting!
Good morning Art! I really appreciate you taking the time to watch the video buddy. Hope you're doing well! You're killing your diet! Congratulations my friend.
The Croix de Guerre is the Military Cross and pronounced something like "craw de gare" It is a very high honor from France. That little town must have really had it going on to have all that, and to be so tidy still.
I’m actually in Palcious this week i live 30 min away but I’m doing some work down here pretty interesting town i like the video never knew all that was here must be on the other side from where I’m at , gonna have to check it out . Fun fact i never knew that this place had a military base during world war 2 also kept German prisoners of war there to
Do they still have the shrimp farm in Palacios? In the 1990's there was a shrimp shortage , can't remember why, but that was a solution, grow em like corn.
@@dennis78382 I took some freight to the first one. It was off hwy 35 East of town about 1 mile. A new building with no windows. Hard to believe that was 25 years ago. I used to see the DEA blimp in Matagorda every day and sometimes delivered to the South Texas Nuclear plant. Plenty of work down 35. There was a place in Lane City that made pom poms for sports events. A lot of interesting people and businesses along the coast.
What a peaceful gorgeous little town...I love the caboose and the red boat at the end...well and everything between😂thanks for the get away😊I made a video but today it said it didn't upload and truck is in shop so no WalMart wifi🙄so I saposed I'll save that one to upload later and do a short chat today🤗Have a great rest of your day!!!🌅
Thank you sir. That matches up with what I learned later so it's nice to have the confirmation. There was no data available at the time. Didn't know I would have to learn three languages to read one sign. 👍😂👍
I went here in 2018' went to the museum - closed. Went to eat in local restaurant - closed. Local park - closed. Nightclub - closed. Stopped at a local convenience store - temporary closed. Should have called this town "closed" and not the pandemic one plus year before.
Good morning Jamie. I checked with two locals and they said I was saying it correctly. I don't know what you mean by don't have a state flag.. Hope your day gets better my friend.

Love Palacios...Hopefully, no one else discovers it. My “getaway” paradise.
I really enjoyed it. I'm going to read up and then go back to get inside that museum
Palacios looks very clean and like a very peaceful community. Palacios and Indianola have a connecting history with the explorer, de La Salle. Great video. TY

Palacios is so nice.. plenty of green, with the water front. Lovely 🏵️☘️

There is awesome history and each one of these little towns as well.
