Her dad used to own it. This bar rates right up there with The Broken Spoke, The Continental Club and The Saxon Pub when it comes to South Austin lore. Wisegeorge taped this some time ago. Visit http://www.wisegeorge.blogspot.com to see videos of most bars in Austin. He does a great job.<br />

It has changed tremendously in fifteen years as the owners kept pumping profits back into expansion. They did a great job, a little bit at a time, but they have always been improving. Jovita's is in its prime and still getting better, but damn there is a lot of traffic on South First at five o'clock in the afternoon.<br />

She had several houses and made millions of dollars.<br /><br />It is said that when she walked into the Austin National Bank, all the bankers stood up and tried to help her. I figure her little black book contained the names of most of the prominent men in Austin at that time. Of course I have no proof of that.<br /><br />Her residence was at 1405 E. Riverside Drive. It is on the southeast corner of I-35 and Riverside. Time Insurance Agency has been located there for the past 5 or 6 years. <br /><br />There are two old homes on the site. I am sure they were beautiful homes in their time. The most interesting thing about these homes is the number of bathrooms. Almost every room has or did have a bathroom. Go figure…..<br /><br />I have worked at Time Insurance in the past and I have a real good true story. One morning, one of the insurance ladies was writing a policy for this little old man that was probably in his mid 60’s. They were sitting in the dining area in the kitchen. The lady excused herself to go get some other paperwork. This little old man looked up at me and smiled and said, “ I’ve been here before, and it wasn’t no insurance agency”. I had to laugh..<br /><br />I have another story told to me by an old south Austin wrecker driver. Waldo Harper owned a wrecker company in Austin. His son still owns the company. Waldo was the king of the little racetrack out by the Bergstrom Air Force Base. He almost always won the championship. <br /><br />The story was told to me this way. Waldo was always looking for sponsorships for his racecar to help pay for the expenses. On day he hit Hattie up for a sponsorship. Hattie had a raspy voice from smoking. She said, “Hell, Waldo, what you put on the car”.<br /><br />Waldo not missing a beat, said, “That’s easy Hattie, Hattie’s Hardware, the best screws in town.” True story. <br /><br />I’ll have more to say about Hattie later…..<br /><br />Below is a google map of Time Insurance Agency....<br /><br /><iframe width="350" height="197" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/sv?cbp=12,166.22,,0,8.66&cbll=30.247579,-97.733979&v=1&panoid=&gl=&hl=en"></iframe><br /><small><a id="cbembedlink" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?cbp=12,166.22,,0,8.66&cbll=30.247579,-97.733979&ll=30.247579,-97.733979&layer=c" style="color:#0000FF;text-align:left">View Larger Map</a></small>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10895795045418438490noreply@blogger.com20tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6931493344171458832.post-65410992475739264202009-06-02T10:04:00.000-07:002009-06-02T10:11:46.613-07:00The Miracle League at Town and Country in Austin, TexasThis may not be in South Austin, but it's one of the reasons that I love Austin, Texas.

Planes do not stay in the same place for the long of a time period, and it was to big to be a helicopter.<br /><br />When i got home i asked my wife and her mother if they wanted to see a UFO, they laughed and i said i was dead serious, so we all jumped in the truck, drove down to where i saw it, and of course nothing, nada, zilch, completely gone.<br /><br />If that was a plane we would have at least caught it coming into bergestrom airport, or other surounding areas.<br /><br />Now tonight (Oct 25th 2008) they just had on the news KVUE, more sightings from up north in stephenseville, and you guessed it, the sightings where all on thursday night (oct 23 2008), one of the witness's even said his brother in Austin could see it from his location.<br /><br />7 F16 fighters where scrambled shortly after the sighting, they claimed it was training, all i can say is, that was probably my first real UFO sighting in the sense that it was truly unidentified and could not compare it to anything i know of, not to mention now there have been multiple witness to come forth about it at the same time, same night.<br /><br />What you see in this video was identical of what i saw from South Austin.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10895795045418438490noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6931493344171458832.post-66782338531495158112009-05-21T04:23:00.000-07:002009-05-21T04:26:44.518-07:00Willie Nelson - Toby Keith - Scott Emerick singing I'll Never Smoke Weed With Willie AgainSouth Austin's Favorite Son.
