There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.

I totally forgot about that Taco Rio.
Civilized people didn't go there. It was definitely west of Wichita
Historic Delano District
Strolling the streets of the Historic Delano District as it is today, with its thriving shops, eateries, businesses, bakeries and more, it’s clear that the area has evolved since its roots in the old days, when saddle-worn cowboys and tired horses and cows made their way to the very same streets. But you can still find plenty of nods to the area’s colorful past.
Located along Douglas Avenue on the west bank of the Arkansas River at the end of the Chisholm Trail, the Historic Delano District was established during the days of the Chisholm Trail cattle drives as a place for the cowboys to blow off steam after months on the trail from Texas.
During the 1870s through 1880s, the cowboys that drove cattle from Texas to railheads in Kansas on the Chisholm Trail often would find their so-called rest and recreation in Delano. It was a time of saloons, brothels, gambling houses, gunfights and cattle rustling, with the fines levied in Delano bringing in revenue to build Wichita.
Eventually incorporated into Wichita, Delano is now a thriving shopping district with more than 250 businesses, including dining and shopping.
