October 15th – Fort Worth
This morning we went to the Stockyards at the old Fort Worth. Each
day at 11.30 AM and 4.00 PM, cowboys drive a small herd of Texas Longhorns
along the road. It is led by the local Sheriff. The area is the old part of
Fort Worth and we really enjoyed the morning.
Had a picture taken on a long horn called Sir Nile who had horns 6
foot 5 inches from one side to the other. After the drive, we visited the
cowboy museum. Had lunch at the Star Café that has been operating since 1905.
We then left and found accommodation at a Holiday Inn near the
airport. At 5PM, they have a “Happy Hour” so we went to that. Free wine and
food.
Tomorrow we head home after a wonderful trip.
