Dallas/Fort Worth, the final stop on our Texas  adventure.  The beautiful building is called The Red Courthouse and is now a museum of Texas history.

 This building needs no explanation.  It is the book depository from which JFK was assasinated from the sixth floor above the white door.

 The Fort Worth Stockyards are an interesting destination.  From a defunct cattle shipping operation to a tourist destination, it has survived the decades.   Cattle are driven through town twice daily but not parked down this street. They hang out here. This is an old roundhouse for the railroad which still takes tourists on a fun hour ride up and down the line.  It is the Old Grapevine Special and we had a great time remembering the railroad ties to both our families.The fun did not stop here.  We were entertained by Mother Nature to a really fantastic light and sound show one night and the next to a spate of tornadoes.  Sorrowfully the tornadoes took out a town south of where we were camped but luckily they missed out own little “tornado magnet.”
