Nope, no dance floor these days. Only food (steaks the "prime" offering). They have expanded over the years and have added several alcoves and a second floor dining area. The parking area has tripled in size to accomodate all the patrons.

Sounds like a lot has changed since I last visited. I think the last time I was able to eat there was back around 1993-1994? somewherer around that time.

And I mean, WOW, a 2nd floor dining area At least they are not on the verge of going out of business anytime soon.

I wonder if Maggies is still open in San Antonio? That place was always crowded, is fairly expensive but, had THE BEST Hash Brown Casserole one could ever have.

Ever since I could remember while growing up in a household of seven people, we all loved the Duke.

My older sister married amd moved out when I was about 7 but I do remember the Sat or Sunday evenings thta we would all be together in the Den watching a John Wayne movie when ABC or CBS would play them. Same goes for Charlton Heston movies.

I remember many-a-time when I was outside playing with friends when my mom would yell out the side door that a John Wayne movie was coming on. Everytime, I stopped what I was doing and came in to watch the movie. Sometimes my friends came in and watched it as well.

THE only time we were allowed to watch the TV during the holidays (during the holiday meals) was when a John Wayne movie was playing.

I remember a few stories that my father told us about when he and my mother were dating. They always went to see Westerns (mainly with the Duke) as part of their date. Usually that was on a Fri or Sat night (sometimes both) and they usually went to eat at The Red Barn in San Antonio. At that time, my dad was still in the USAF.

On a night they were not watching a movie, they went and danced at The Red Barn as well-back when it had (don't know if it still does) a dance floor.
