San Angelo
"Its heart still beats on Concho Avenue, filled with boutiques
and restaurants in old buildings of native stone and cast iron,
crowned with old fashioned finials. Below the street flows the
Concho River, and beyond the river stands the city's first site,
Fort Concho National Historic Landmark. "
--Boots, Saddles, and Pearls - Gary D. Ford -Southern
Living Magazine
