Midlife Crisis Transplant

Talked to a deputy who worked that area and he said a guy who worked at Coopers opened his own place on the South end of town...

Probably talking about Opie's in Spicewood.

• Maybe. Did he start out in Llano when he first opened up?

No, but he worked at Coopers in Llano. Spicewood is not that far from Llano, maybe 10 or 12 miles.

Ok maybe that was it. Been a while since I been down there. Went to a 3 week long school at Kerrville to try and get smartened up back in 90s. Drove past it a few times going to and fro..if it’s South of town. On the main road. We were into comp cooking in that era. We had to try to eat leftovers from various contests. Swear I am just now sorta getting to where the smell of wood smoke don’t make me puke. lol

Spicewood is farther from LLano than i thought so maybe that wasn't the one the deputy was talking about.

That's about as bad as liking salsa from New York City.
As far as suggesting the McRib... Get a rope!
