Neighborhood Association Website

A few months ago our neighborhood decided to update our website. You'll find news from the neighborhood and great pictures of on-going projects. Here's a link to it:

Panchos and Gringos Grand Opening 01/05/13 to 01/17/13

This wonderful little restaurant just opened in Dignowity Hill, at the corner of Nolan and N. Pine (address: 900 Nolan, 78202). The food is great, this is the only place where I will drink coffee other than at home. The prices are amazing and the portions rather large. Come over to our neighborhood and try it; while you're here take a tour and see the changes around Dignowity Hill. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

Moving to Dignowity Hill

Within the next couple of weeks, my husband and I (along with our 3 dogs and our cat) will be living in Dignowity Hill. Meanwhile, I've been spending a lot of time exploring the neighborhood. I'm so excited to be moving so close to everything we enjoy doing.

Yesterday morning, I stopped by the Pearl Brewery Farmers Market, after having avoided it because I was told it wasn't worth it. Well, I was very pleasantly surprised. First of all, the market is a short 2 miles from my house and there are no steep hills so I can ride my bicycle and come back loaded with vegetables, cheeses, perhaps even some meat on a cool day.


Numerous stalls attracted hungry customers with their alluring produce, cheeses, meats, nuts, and herbs. The vendors were friendly and inviting; there was an area where children could play, right next to a band playing live music.


As if the market itself weren't wonderful enough, it happens to be located right on the San Antonio River, where shoppers can take a stroll before they indulge in the best looking vegetables I've seen in a long time. There's plenty of sampling to do!
