Opened with 30 minutes of cartoons and comedies(not named) and “Montana”.
Uploaded a picture of the completed Plains Drive in from the Texas Tech University Special Collections.
From 1950 a photo of the Plains Drive-In in Odessa Texas.
Approx. address for this drive-in was 1220 West University Boulevard. The entrance is now Westview Clinic.
Oh, I can imagine. I was just pointing out that it should map with the correct spelling. That is why these comment boxes are here, to add information and point out mistakes.
I was just kidding around about the glasses, the eyes start to fail after too many hours in front of the computer. Whoever manages the updates is doing a fantastic job, a little mistake here and there is inevitable.
It should read “N. COUNTY Road W.” Not “Country.”
Country = bad mapping.
Someone needs to update the prescription on there glasses…lol :)
