Winans Hand-Made Puppets
"Across the street from the Alamo is a simple limestone and waterfall "paseo" weaving down to the River, where, if you have keen eyes, you can see a vivid Venetian-tiled mosaic of blended Tex-Mex cultures."
"And, of course, GrandMa's Tea House, the mother of all the local Head Shops. On Broadway near Hung Fong. My friend Charles Winans, RIP, opened it in around 66 or so."
"The greatest scientific minds are remarkably often also artists, musicians and writers themselves." - Joseph Bravo
