Mornings are peaceful and quiet until the planes start overhead, but even that is a wonderful part of life in Lake Worth. Just a few miles down Texas Highway 199, we would make our home in the small city of Lake Worth. Early survey papers indicate that James Hodgkins and William Charbonneau, both founding fathers of Lake Worth Village, owned land where the water reservoir named Lake Worth would be built. With its 400-foot boardwalk and majestic roller coaster, additional rides and a 300-pound caged gorilla, Lake Worth was a popular vacation spot. I love Lake Worth.
