Dawnette's family, Chandler, and I headed to the Stockyards on Saturday.
What would Texas be without horses, Stetsons, boots, and longhorn cattle? Notice the cobblestone streets.
The highlight of Chandler's trip was the cattlepen maze. He thought it was great fun!
Here's the gang watching an air show. (Chandler is the photographer which explains why he's not in the photo as well as why backsides are showing.) The Blue Angels were incredible to watch but my photography skills are no better than Chandler's and the photos are all indistinct gray blurs against a blue background.
We toured the Bureau of Printing and Engraving but, alas, they don't allow cameras so pull a $20 bill out of your purse/pocket and stare at it. Add some big machines and lots of wire cages and you've got quite a bit of our tour.
The Water Gardens were pretty cool. I'm posed with my nephew, Neal, and Chandler. The Water Gardens contain three different pools - aerated, active, and still.
My favorite pool was the active pool. It sounded like a major waterfall. You could step on the stones to walk down into it. The water rushed around you and under you. It was a little unnerving just because it was so loud but it was really cool.
