Emmett Shelton, Sr. (1905-2000) opens this Chapter as he and his wife, Joyce, expand their work in Westlake Hills to the north and west. There were no roads between Bee Cave Road and the River. No Pennybacker Bridge, No Loop 360. Their new range covered the entire Westlake Peninsula.
In Episode 1, Emmett describes the territory in the 1930-40, access to Austin, existing roads, and the unclear ownership of much of the land. Emmett includes a colorful story about historic figure Ben Thompson using Bee Creek as a hideout in the 1860s. Westlake has been the Land of Opportunity for Many over the past 200 years.
