Best Turtle Bonding

County Line on the Lake

Kiddie Barbecue Dos & Don'ts: Do bring the kids to this family classic set in an ol' Texas fishing lodge and nestled on the banks of Bull Creek. Don't let the li'l ones fill up on the melt-in-your-mouth mini-bread loaves (instead order a few to-go). Do take a stroll around the place and point out all the kitschy artifacts you remember from your childhood. Don't forget to line your pockets with quarters. After a meal, head out back to the dock, pump a few coins in the turtle-feed dispenser, and sit back and watch the kids delight as the bales and doles of our shell-backed pals swim and wiggle their way to get to the feast. Just like your little ones, they feed, they fuss, and they count on you to take care of them.
