Day 73 – Visiting Friends in Dallas / Fort Worth / Colleyville

Day 73 of #BoxsterRoadTrip is another visiting friends day in the Dallas / Fort Worth area.

IMG_4189IMG_4191We started the day with a trip to the Fort Worth Stockyards with our good friend (and host), Bob.  I have to say, it was an incredibly COLD day, with temperatures hovering between 27 and 41 (and with the wind chill factor, 41 feels like 32).  Us Californians are just not used to this frigid weather!  Wimps!!!

 

 

IMG_4199IMG_4200IMG_4197We wandered around for a while, checked out some of the shops, and then headed to Riscky’s Bar-B-Q for lunch.  It was delicious!

 

 

 

IMG_4202IMG_4211After lunch, we stopped at the White Elephant Saloon on our way to do some more “window shopping” (since there is no room in the Boxster for “real shopping”!  We even stopped at M.L. Leddy’s, even though we know this store is way out of our league!  But we can dream and drool!!!

 

 

IMG_4221IMG_4222The day was capped off with a trip to a working ranch, where we were treated to a tour of the heated barn, where there were a number of beautiful horses.  After the tour, we went to dinner at the Texas Roadhouse, and we enjoyed a fabulous steak dinner with our friends (and host) Bob and Mary.  Another evening of stories and laughter and reminiscing!  Tomorrow we head northwest to Amarillo and . . .

The journey continues . . .
