History by roadside…

Did you know?

That the following was published in the 1929 Mopac advertising booklet… Bird Island, in the Laguna Madre, a strip of water between the Valley mainland and Padre Island, is a government bird-controlled sanctuary.

Here millions of sea gulls and other birds live in a carefree, undisturbed life.
