A to Z - Eye on Texas: P

 Eye on Texas - P - visits Ponder Texas. It's located in Denton County, north of the Dallas Fort Worth area. It has a population of 1400.

 Big claim to fame is that Bonnie and Clyde might have tried to rob the Ponder State Bank back in the day. That definitely has a cool factor, especially if you think of the Warren Beatty/Faye Dunaway version of Bonnie and Clyde.

Today the claim to fame is the Ranchman's Ponder Steakhouse. I have not eaten here, but it's supposed to be worth the trek.  www.ranchman.com


From Mrs. Pattmore, our favorite cook on Downton - "Listen to me and take those kidneys up to the servery before I knock you down and serve your brains as fritters."
