The folks drove to Fort Worth to visit the Stockyards.  I thought that sounded like a strange way to spend the day, but Mama said there would be a lot to do there.  Actually, Mama was quite surprised by the number of people that were there. 



There is a maze that people can walk through.  It was on The Amazing Race.


A cattle drive is held each day at 11:30 a.m. and 4 p.m.




Yep, they come right down the street.

After the cattle drive, the Legends of Texas put on a gunfight.  Mama said the gunshots were so loud that it really hurt her hears.  It is held in an enclosed area and it echoed.
