We took our honeymoon a couple months after we were married. We decided to go to Texas. We flew into Fort Worth/Dallas on the 4th of July and stayed until the 11th.
At the airport before leaving Fargo
We went to the Cotton Bowl that night to watch the fireworks. There were 50,000 people there...a bigger event than what we are used to back in South Dakota!
We went to the Stockyards and saw the Cowboy Hall of Fame as well as another museum.
At the stockyards....we also got in on a cattle drive where they brought the Texas Longhorns down main street.
We went to Billy Bob's which is walking distance from the Stockyards. It's a big country music place where they have lots of concerts. We ate at the restaurant that was there.
Friday night found us at the rodeo at the Stockyards.
While coming back from the rodeo, we pulled up to the hotel to find a horse and carriage waiting outside the hotel. We decided to take a carriage ride and had a 30 minute ride around Fort Worth in it. A peaceful end to the evening at 11 pm.
While there, we went to the Stuttering Convention Thursday- Saturday. They had a banquet to end the convention. Here we are dressed up at our table.
The speaker was David Seidel, writer of the movie "The Kings Speech." We met him and got our movie signed.
Sunday found us at the zoo in Forth Worth.
And, the following day we boarded the airplane for home. The week was fun and went really fast!
