La Grange Texas

Since we were driving within an extra 15 minutes of the town, we decided to check out La Grange. The subject of perhaps the most infamous ZZ Top song ever, and the location of the original Chicken Ranch brothel that inspired Dolly Parton’s movie The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, La Grange was founded in 1854 and is a typical old Texas town. Sadly, the Chicken Ranch is long gone, and there is no roadside bling to let you know where it was, and no larger than life statues of ZZ Top. But we enjoyed our visit anyway, and now I can honestly say I have been there!

Talk to you soon!
