Alvin is in the Gulf Coast of Texas. Home of the Pitcher Nolan Ryan. It's about 20 miles southeast of Houston, at the intersections of SH-35 and SH-6.
SH-35 business cuts right through down town. From I-45, exit Telephone Rd. and go south until you see Alvin.
Car. Only car. This is near-rural Texas!
Pecans fallen from the trees. They're addictive!
Brazoria county is a "wet" county. It used to be "damp" which meant you could only buy beer with low alcohol content. The availability is still somewhat lacking, so consider going to Galveston County for a better selection.
